Frequency-dependent selection for rare genotypes promotes genetic diversity of a tropical palm.

Ecology letters - 1 Dec 2016

Browne Luke, Karubian Jordan

Abstract excerpt

Negative frequency-dependent selection among species is a key driver of community diversity in natural systems, but the degree to which negative frequency-dependent selection shapes patterns of survival and genetic diversity within species is poorly understood. In a 5-year field experiment, we show that seedlings of a tropical palm with rare genotypes had a pronounced survival advantage over seedlings with common...
