The evolution ofself-fertilizationand inbreeding depression in plants.From theCambridge English Corpus
No progeny were identified as the products ofself-fertilizationin this population.From theCambridge English Corpus
Broadly speaking, greaterself-fertilizationdecreases element number under deleterious insertion and increases element number with regulation through ectopic exchange.From theCambridge English Corpus
However,self-fertilizationshould be interpreted cautiously with respect to only 8 loci in a relatively small number of individuals analysed.From theCambridge English Corpus
Such expectations are badly needed to built realistic models of the evolution ofself-fertilization.From theCambridge English Corpus
In order for reproduction byself-fertilizationto evolve, the advantages must outweigh any possible disadvantage of inbreeding.From theCambridge English Corpus
The genetic variability is therefore expected to be halved in populations with very high frequencies ofself-fertilization.From theCambridge English Corpus
Also,self-fertilization, as mentioned above, is expected to promote local population differentiation.From theCambridge English Corpus
Suppose the offspring is to be produced throughself-fertilization.From theCambridge English Corpus
Some reproductive factors affecting the selection ofself-fertilizationin plants.From theCambridge English Corpus
Animals mix it up too: the distribution ofself-fertilizationamong hermaphroditic animals.From theCambridge English Corpus
Eggs are produced byself-fertilization(most trematodes are hermaphroditic), bypassing the need for the worm to mature in a definitive host.From theCambridge English Corpus
Outbreeding,self-fertilization, gynogenesis and triploidy would influence the recombination of alleles between individuals and hence the degree of genetic diversity generated by each fluke.From theCambridge English Corpus
Under these circumstances, homozygosity associated withself-fertilizationis ineffective at reducing average element number.From theCambridge English Corpus
