Somatic deleterious mutation rate in a woody plant: estimation from phenotypic data.

Heredity - 1 Oct 2013

Bobiwash K, Schultz S T, Schoen D J

Abstract excerpt

We conducted controlled crosses in populations of the long-lived clonal shrub, Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) to estimate inbreeding depression and mutation parameters associated with somatic deleterious mutation. Inbreeding depression level was high, with many plants failing to set fruit after self-pollination. We also compared fruit set from autogamous pollinations (pollen collected from within the...
