Effects of Ploidy on Relationship Between Outbreeding Response and Fitness in a Plant Selfing Species. [PDF]
Outbreeding response is both ploidy‐dependent and functionally tied to fitness, highlighting its potential role in promoting outcrossing and driving mating system evolution in inbred plant populations. ABSTRACT Outbreeding response, the phenotypic differences observed between selfed parental lines and their outcrossed offspring, can influence the ...
