Pollen Competition as an Evolutionary Parameter Involved in the Domestication of Allogamous Cereal: A Two-locus Symmetrical Model of the Evolution on Sympatric Condition of Wild and Cultivated Populations of Pearl Millet

  • Conference paper
Angiosperm Pollen and Ovules

Abstract

The importance of the haploid phase of the life-cycle of Angiosperms in their evolution has already been discussed (Mulcahy, 1979; Mulcahy and Mulcahy, 1987; Snow, 1990) and mostly studied through theoretical modeling (Pfahler, 1983; Hartl, 1975; Harding, 1975). Until now, two levels of consequences of haploid selection on evolution of population have been considered.
