We review the literature on effects of inbreeding depression (ID) on seed germination for 743 case studies of 233 species in 64 families. For 216 case studies, we also review the …
Premise Newly formed polyploids face significant obstacles to persistence and population establishment because of fitness costs of intercytotype mating. Selfing provides the …
Abstract Backgrounds and Aims Theory predicts that the long-term persistence of plant populations exposed to size reduction can be threatened by a loss of genetic diversity and …
