Selfing, adaptation and background selection in finite populations.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Jul 2014

Kamran-Disfani A, Agrawal A F

Abstract excerpt

Classic deterministic genetic models of the evolution of selfing predict species should be either completely outcrossing or completely selfing. However, even species considered high selfers outcross to a small degree (e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana and Caenorhabditis elegans). This discrepancy between...
