Résumé : |
"tThe evolutionary trajectory of isolated or small populations of self-incompatible species depends ongenetic variation in the capacity to transition to self-compatibility and the impact of inbreeding onplant fitness. Centaurea cyanus is an example of a self-incompatible, arable field-dependent weed speciesthat is in regression in western Europe due to agricultural intensification. However, some cases of self-fertilization have been observed. Here, we investigated how inbreeding depression impacts the plantsby studying two generations of self-fertilized families. As early as at the stage of the first selfing genera-tion, we observed reduction in the number of florets per capitulum. By the second selfing generation, weobserved reductions in germination rate, plant height, above-ground plant biomass, seed set and the finalnumber and mass of seeds per plant. In particular, dramatically lower germination rate and reduced seedset contributed to a low cumulative fitness index of the generations that resulted from selfing. Never-theless, although high average inbreeding depression was observed, large variation in cumulative fitnessamong families would allow some of these selfed families to persist and trigger evolution of selfing insmall, isolated populations."
