Lonely hearts or sex in the city? Density-dependent effects in mating systems (2006, background): “Whether this effect helps to explain variation in mobility, and whether correlations with population size or density would be expected, remains to be studied (small populations are often inbred, but may also have undergone genetic purging, Glémin 2003).”
The Evolutionary Enigma of Mixed Mating Systems in Plants: Occurrence, Theoretical Explanations, and Empirical Evidence (2005, background): “…se o nl y. EVOLUTIONARY STABILITY OF MIXED MATING 61 Recent theoretical results suggest that a range of factors such as population size and structure can influence purging and standing levels of inbreeding depression (Glemin 2003, Whitlock et al. 2000) and could account for some of this variation.”
The rough edges of the conservation genetics paradigm for plants (2006, background): “…et al. 2003; Armbruster & Reed 2005), the possibilities and limitations of the purging of genetic loads (e.g. Whitlock 2000; Crnokrak & Barrett 2002; Glemin 2003) and the role of spatially subdivided populations (i.e. metapopulations) (e.g. Higgins & Lynch 2001; Hanski & Gagiotti 2004; Bouchy…”
