Evolutionary consequences of self-fertilization in plants.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jun 2013

Wright Stephen I, Kalisz Susan, Slotte Tanja

Abstract excerpt

The transition from outcrossing to self-fertilization is one of the most common evolutionary changes in plants, yet only about 10-15% of flowering plants are predominantly selfing. To explain this phenomenon, Stebbins proposed that selfing may be an 'evolutionary dead end'. According to this hypothesis, transitions from outcrossing to selfing are irreversible, and selfing lineages suffer from an increased risk of...
