Mating system of Datura inoxia: association between selfing rates and herkogamy within populations [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Plant mating system determines, to a great extent, the demographic and genetic properties of populations, hence their potential for adaptive evolution. Variation in plant mating system has been documented between phylogenetically related species as well ...

Power and limits of selection genome scans on temporal data from a selfing population
Peer Community Journal, 2021 Tracking genetic changes of populations through time allows a more direct study of the evolutionary processes acting on the population than a single contemporary sample.

Mating system and speciation I: Accumulation of genetic incompatibilities in allopatry.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 Self-fertilisation is widespread among hermaphroditic species across the tree of life. Selfing has many consequences on the genetic diversity and the evolutionary dynamics of populations, which may in turn affect macroevolutionary processes such as ...

Mutation accumulation in a selfing population: consequences of different mutation rates between selfers and outcrossers. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Currently existing theories predict that because deleterious mutations accumulate at a higher rate, selfing populations suffer from more intense genetic degradation relative to outcrossing populations.

Self-medication and self-prescription [PDF]
Gaceta Médica de México, 2023 Self-medication and self-prescription are actions undertaken by patients; the former, as an element of self-care that involves over-the-counter drugs, and the latter, as a violation of the Statute of Health, since it includes drugs that can only be dispensed with a medical prescription. All the drawbacks that have been attributed to self-medication are

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Angiosperms are highly diverse in their reproductive systems, including predominantly selfing, exclusive outcrossing, and mixed mating systems. Even though selfing can have negative consequences on natural populations, it has been proposed that plants ...

Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2022 The breeding system of Anacyclus linearilobus, an annual and endemic species restricted to dune ecosystems of the Algerian coast were assessed through the effect of self-fertilization and intra- and inter-population artificial crosses on the probability

Self-pollination by sliding pollen in Caulokaempferia coenobialis (Zingiberaceae) [PDF]
, 2005 Caulokaempferia coenobialis (Zingiberaceae) forms dense populations on steep cliffs in shady, humid monsoon forests in south China. It produces few consecutively opening bright yellow flowers that are 3 cm long and oriented parallel to the ground.

Gene expression drives the evolution of dominance. [PDF]
, 2018 Dominance is a fundamental concept in molecular genetics and has implications for understanding patterns of genetic variation, evolution, and complex traits.

Evolution of flowering time in a selfing annual plant: Roles of adaptation and genetic drift
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Resurrection studies are a useful tool to measure how phenotypic traits have changed in populations through time. If these trait modifications correlate with the environmental changes that occurred during the time period, it suggests that the phenotypic ...
