Climate change creates challenges for wild species, but plants have survived and adapted to similar changes in their evolutionary past. Most plants were originally outcrossing, one theoretical genetic reason being that self-fertilization does not create ...

Purging deleterious mutations under self fertilization: paradoxical recovery in fitness with increasing mutation rate in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
The accumulation of deleterious mutations can drastically reduce population mean fitness. Self-fertilization is thought to be an effective means of purging deleterious mutations. However, widespread linkage disequilibrium generated and maintained by self-

Cannabis sativa L. (hemp, marijuana) produces male and female inflorescences on different plants (dioecious) and therefore the plants are obligatory out-crossers.

Protandry and Self-Fertilization in the Calyptraeidae [PDF]
ORTON1 suggested that protandrous animals might be self-fertilizing and that this would be advantageous for the spread of a species. He concluded that Crepidula fornicata was self-fertilizing because he found an isolated female guarding veliger larvae. I have kept single Crepidula in aquaria and they have laid fertilized spawn two to three months later.

Création et étude de lignées chez le Pinot noir (Vitis vinifera L.)
L'objectif est l'obtention de génotypes de type « lignée », capables de transmettre à une descendance sexuée les caractères les plus utiles tels que la couleur de la baie dans le cas d'une variété de cuve comme le Pinot noir.

Mitochondrial respiration and Ca2+ waves are linked during fertilization and meiosis completion [PDF]
Fertilization increases both cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration and oxygen consumption in the egg but the relationship between these two phenomena remains largely obscure.

Self-fertility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
SUMMARY: Two interfertile strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were re-examined for evidence of self-fertility. One strain was self-fertile, the frequency of recombination being affected by the manner in which the parent organisms were grown before being combined. The other strain gave no evidence of self-fertility.

Sexual & reproductive health self-care measurement tool [PDF]
The Sexual and Reproductive Health Self-Care Measurement Tool aims to provide a global standard approach to practical and accurate measurement of sexual and reproductive (SRH) self-care interventions, with a focus on three specific interventions: self ...

Self-fertilization rate strongly affects establishment of gene drive in a 10 year window.
(A) Simulation of gene drive invasion under default conditions when self-fertilization rate is low at 0.2 and high at 0.8. (B) Endpoint sensitivity analysis depicting the gene drive frequency in the population after 10 years under variable self ...
