Abstract excerpt
We used 15 microsatellite markers to estimate the selfing rate (s), outcrossing rate (t(O) ) and hybridization between partially sympatric ecomorphs (t(H) ) of the coral Favia fragum. Genotyping of progeny arrays revealed complete self-fertilization in the Tall ecomorph and low outcrossing (t(O) + t(H) < 1%) in the Short ecomorph. Further, all larvae could be assigned with high probability to the same...
