{"oa":1,"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"For self-incompatibility (SI) to be stable in a population, theory predicts that sufficient inbreeding depression (ID) is required: the fitness of offspring from self-mated individuals must be low enough to prevent the spread of self-compatibility (SC). Reviews of natural plant populations have supported this theory, with SI species generally showing high levels of ID. However, there is thought to be an under-sampling of self-incompatible taxa in the current literature. In this thesis, I study inbreeding depression in the SI plant species Antirrhinum majus using both greenhouse crosses and a large collected field dataset. Additionally, the gametophytic S-locus of A. majus is highly heterozygous and polymorphic, thus making assembly and discovery of S-alleles very difficult. Here, 206 new alleles of the male component SLFs are presented, along with a phylogeny showing the high conservation with alleles from another Antirrhinum species. Lastly, selected sites within the protein structure of SLFs are investigated, with one site in particular highlighted as potentially being involved in the SI recognition mechanism."}],"year":"2023","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"ScienComp"}],"page":"96","author":[{"id":"2CFCFF98-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Arathoon, Louise S","last_name":"Arathoon","orcid":"0000-0003-1771-714X","first_name":"Louise S"}],"day":"12","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"has_accepted_license":"1","citation":{"chicago":"Arathoon, Louise S. “Investigating Inbreeding Depression and the Self-Incompatibility Locus of Antirrhinum Majus.” Institute of Science and Technology Austria, 2023. https://doi.org/10.15479/at:ista:14651.","ama":"Arathoon LS.
