The mixed mating system of the sea palm kelp Postelsia palmaeformis: few costs to selfing.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 May 2011

Barner Allison K, Pfister Catherine A, Wootton J Timothy

Abstract excerpt

Naturally isolated populations have conflicting selection pressures for successful reproduction and inbreeding avoidance. These species with limited seasonal reproductive opportunities may use selfing as a means of reproductive assurance. We quantified the frequency of selfing and the fitness consequences for inbred versus outcrossed progeny of an annual kelp, the sea palm (Postelsia palmaeformis). Using...
