Environmental unpredictability and inbreeding depression select for mixed dispersal syndromes

2015-11-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Mixed dispersal syndromes have historically been regarded as bet-hedging mechanisms that enhance survival in unpredictable environments, ensuring that some propagules stay in the maternal environment while others can potentially colonize new sites. However, this entails paying the costs of both dispersal and non-dispersal. Propagules that disperse are likely to encounter unfavorable condition...
