Preventing self-fertilization: Insights from Ziziphus species [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The fitness of self-progeny individuals is inferior to that of their outcrossed counterparts, resulting in a reduction in a plant population’s ability to survive and reproduce.

PARASITES AND THE EVOLUTION OF SELF-FERTILIZATION [PDF]

Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 2001
Assuming all else is equal, an allele for selfing should spread when rare in an outcrossing population and rapidly reach fixation. Such an allele will not spread, however, if self-fertilization results in inbreeding depression so severe that the fitness of selfed offspring is less that half that of outcrossed offspring.

A Semi-Automated SNP-Based Approach for Contaminant Identification in Biparental Polyploid Populations of Tropical Forage Grasses

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Artificial hybridization plays a fundamental role in plant breeding programs since it generates new genotypic combinations that can result in desirable phenotypes.

Population Genomics of the “Arcanum” Species Group in Wild Tomatoes: Evidence for Separate Origins of Two Self-Compatible Lineages

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Given their diverse mating systems and recent divergence, wild tomatoes (Solanum section Lycopersicon) have become an attractive model system to study ecological divergence, the build-up of reproductive barriers, and the causes and consequences of the ...

Comparing levels of geitonogamous visitation by honey bees and other pollinators

Journal of Pollination Ecology, 2023
Geitonogamy, the transfer of pollen from one flower to another on the same plant, is often the primary means of self-pollination in flowering plants.

Self-Fertilization and the Evolution of Recombination [PDF]

Genetics, 2005
Abstract In this article, we study the effect of self-fertilization on the evolution of a modifier allele that alters the recombination rate between two selected loci. We consider two different life cycles: under gametophytic selfing, a given proportion of fertilizations involves gametes produced by the same haploid individual, while ...
