text: This paper analyzes how partial selfing in a large source population influences
its ability to colonize a new habitat via the introduction of a few founder individuals.
Founders experience inbreeding depression due to partially recessive deleterious
alleles as well as maladaptation to the new environment due to selection on a
large number of additive loci. I first introduce a simplified version of the Inbreeding
History Model (Kelly, 2007) in order to characterize mutation‐selection balance
in a large, partially selfing source population under selection involving multiple
non‐identical loci. I then use individual‐based simulations to study the eco‐evolutionary
dynamics of founders establishing in the new habitat under a model of hard selection.
The study explores how selfing rate shapes establishment probabilities of founders
via effects on both inbreeding depression and adaptability to the new environment,
and also distinguishes the effects of selfing on the initial fitness of founders
from its effects on the long‐term adaptive response of the populations they found.
A high rate of (but not complete) selfing is found to aid establishment over a
wide range of parameters, even in the absence of mate limitation. The sensitivity
of the results to assumptions about the nature of polygenic selection are discussed.
