Hermaphrodite life history and the maintenance of partial selfing in experimental populations of Caenorhabditis elegans
BACKGROUND: Classic population genetics theory predicts that mixed reproductive systems, where self reproduction (selfing) and outcrossing co-exist, should not be as common as they are in nature. One means of reconciling theory with observations is to recognize that sexual conflict between males and...
