Fitness of crop-wild hybrid sunflower under competitive conditions: implications for crop-to-wild introgression.

Understanding the likelihood and extent of introgression of novel alleles in hybrid zones requires comparison of lifetime fitness of parents and hybrid progeny. However, fitness differences among cross types can vary depending on biotic conditions, thereby influencing introgression patterns. Based o...
