Inbreeding depression and inferred deleterious-mutation parameters in Daphnia.
DENG and LYNCH recently proposed a method for estimating deleterious genomic mutation parameters from changes in the mean and genetic variance of fitness traits upon inbreeding in outcrossing populations. Such observations are readily acquired in cyclical parthenogens. Selfing and life-table experiments were performed for two such Daphnia populations. We observed a significant inbreeding depres...
متن کاملInbreeding depression and outbreeding depression in Digitalis purpurea: optimal outcrossing distance in a tetraploid.
An optimal crossing distance exists within plant populations if inbreeding and outbreeding depression operate simultaneously. In a population of tetraploid Digitalis purpurea, maternal plants were pollinated with donors at four distances: 0 (self-pollination), 1, 6 and 30 m. Lifetime fitness of F1 progeny was investigated in greenhouse experiments, and significant inbreeding and outbreeding dep...
متن کاملInbreeding Levels and Inbreeding Depression in a Farmed
A farmed population of rainbow trout under selection for over six generations from the Norwegian Salmon Breeding Company, Ltd. was investigated for levels of inbreeding and occurrence of inbreeding depression for body weight. The average percent inbreeding levels and percent of individuals with inbreeding greater than zero (in parenthesis) were 2.9 (59.3), 2.8 (49.8), 8.5 (87.1), 8.0 (82.8) and...
متن کاملEffects of floral display size and biparental inbreeding on outcrossing rates in Delphinium barbeyi (Ranunculaceae).
Floral display size represents a tradeoff between the benefits of increased pollinator visitation and the quantity of pollen received vs. the costs of increased self-pollination and reduced pollination quality. Plants with large floral displays often are more attractive to pollinators, but pollinators visit more flowers per plant. Intraplant foraging movements should increase self-pollination t...
متن کاملOutcrossing rate and inbreeding depression in the perennial yellow bush lupine, Lupinus arboreus (Fabaceae).
Little is known about the breeding systems of perennial Lupinus species. We provide information about the breeding system of the perennial yellow bush lupine, Lupinus arboreus, specifically determining self-compatibility, outcrossing rate, and level of inbreeding depression. Flowers are self-compatible, but autonomous self-fertilization rarely occurs; thus selfed seed are a product of facilitat...
