Outcrossing increases resistance against coevolving parasites

AbstractDespite substantial costs, biparental sex is the dominant mode of reproduction across plant and animal taxa. The Red Queen hypothesis (RQH) posits that coevolutionary interactions with parasites can favor biparental sex in hosts, despite the costs.

Gaussian Outcrossings from Safe Convex Polyhedrons

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1983
A simple upper and lower bound technique developed for the evaluation of the failure probability of a “weakest link” structural system is applied to a structural system having a convex, polyhedral safe set in the space of basic variables. The structure is subjected to a Gaussian vector‐load‐effect process. Conditional second moment calculus, as applied

Reexamination of Convex Polyhedron Outcrossing Problem

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1994
Structural series‐system reliability analyses formulated solely by use of a finite number of random variables can often be done with sufficient accuracy in terms of first‐ or second‐order upper and lower bounds on the system failure probability. The bounds are of the first order if they are defined solely by the single‐element‐failure probabilities ...

Outcrossing rate in cultivated autotetraploid potato

American Potato Journal, 1993
Outcrossing rates in potato were measured in an open-pollination field experiment at a location in the Peruvian Andes. Embryo spot, a dominant genetic seed marker, was used to measure outcrossing rate. The source of the dominant marker, the donor, was interplanted among recipient clones lacking the marker (recessive genotype), for which outcrossing was
