Variation in competitive ability with mating system, ploidy and range expansion in four Capsella species
Xuyue Yang, Martin Lascoux, Sylvain Glémin
The paper compares competitive ability across four Capsella species with different mating systems and ploidy levels, finding selfing species are more sensitive to competition than outcrossers, with ploidy and range expansion influencing this sensitivity.
