Evolution of selfing from outcrossing recurrently occurred in many lineages, especially in flowering plants. Evolution of selfing induces dramatic changes in the population genetics functioning but its consequences on the dynamics of adaptation have been overlooked. We studied a simple one‐locus model of adaptation where a population experiences an environmental change at a given time. We first determined...
The effect of partial inbreeding on extinction and fixation times of a selected allele with partial dominance is studied using a diffusion model. Asymptotic approximations are obtained for large populations and the accuracy of the approximations was found to increase with inbreeding level. They show that inbreeding reduces extinction and fixation times compared to random mating at least by a factor...
