Lifetime inbreeding depression, purging, and mating system evolution in a simultaneous hermaphrodite tapeworm.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2014

Benesh Daniel P, Weinreich Friederike, Kalbe Martin, Milinski Manfred

Abstract excerpt

Classical theory on mating system evolution suggests that simultaneous hermaphrodites should either outcross if they have high inbreeding depression (ID) or self-fertilize if they have low ID. However, a mixture of selfing and outcrossing persists in many species. Previous studies with the tapewo...
