Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Self-fertilization has recurrently evolved from outcrossing. Self-fertilization provides an advantage in the short-term as individuals do not require a mate to reproduce, but self-fertilization is also associated with both decreased genetic diversity and accumulation of weakly deleterious mutations, which could, however, be alleviated in polyploid selfers. If pollinators are not limited, individu...
