Genome-wide deleterious mutation favors dispersal and species integrityM T Morgan
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman 99164, USA
Heredity (Edinb) 89:253-7. 2002..The advantage is inversely related to local inbreeding depression. Genome-wide deleterious mutation favors the evolution of dispersal, which in turn enhances the genetic integrity of the species...
Explaining phenotypic selection on plant attractive characters: male function, gender balance or ecological context?Tia Lynn Ashman
Department of Biological Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA
Proc Biol Sci 271:553-9. 2004....
Evolution of a small-muscle polymorphism in lines of house mice selected for high activity levelsTheodore Garland
Department of Biology, University of California, Riverside 92521, USA
Evolution 56:1267-75. 2002....
Quantitative character evolution under complicated sexual systems, illustrated in gynodioecious Fragaria virginianaMartin T Morgan
1. School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington 99164, USA
Am Nat 162:257-64. 2003
Self-fertilization and the escape from pollen limitation in variable pollination environmentsMartin T Morgan
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington 99164 4236, USA
Evolution 59:1143-8. 2005..The results reflect the importance of geometric mean fitness (which in a variable environment is less than the arithmetic mean) in the face of temporal variation...
Properties of maximum likelihood male fertility estimation in plant populationsM T Morgan
Department of Botany, Department of Genetics and Cell Biology, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington 99164 4238, USA
Genetics 149:1099-103. 1998..g., about the variance in male fertility or the correlation between fertility and phenotypic trait value) that can be reasonably drawn...
Using genetic markers to directly estimate male selection gradientsM T Morgan
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman 99164 4236, USA
Evolution 55:272-81. 2001..Sampling only some male genotypes reduces the power to detect selection and biases (underestimates) the magnitude of the selection gradient estimate...
Transposable element number in mixed mating populationsM T Morgan
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, WA 99164 4236, USA
Genet Res 77:261-75. 2001..Limitations to available empirical data, especially the lack of comparison between closely related species differing in mating system, mean that this conclusion is tentative...
Plant population dynamics, pollinator foraging, and the selection of self-fertilizationMartin T Morgan
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington 99164, USA
Am Nat 166:169-83. 2005..Our analysis has consequences for understanding pollen limitation, reproductive assurance, and the evolution of mating systems...
The effect of self-fertilization, inbreeding depression, and population size on autopolyploid establishmentJoseph H Rausch
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, Washington 99164 4236, USA
Evolution 59:1867-75. 2005....
Patterns and mechanisms of selection on a family-diagnostic trait: evidence from experimental manipulation and lifetime fitness selection gradientsJeffrey K Conner
Kellogg Biological Station and Department of Plant Biology, Michigan State University, 3700 East Gull Lake Drive, Hickory Corners, Michigan 49060, USA
Evolution 57:480-6. 2003..We discuss these results in light of pollen presentation theory...
Coevolution in temporally variable environmentsScott L Nuismer
1 Section of Integrative Biology C0930, University of Texas, Austin, Texas, 78712, USA
Am Nat 162:195-204. 2003..These results are compared with those from spatial models with unrestricted movement. The comparisons demonstrate that gene flow is unnecessary for generating empirical patterns predicted by the geographic mosaic theory of coevolution...
