Table 1 Mean ± SE and estimates for inbreeding depression (d) for fifteen vegetative and reproductive traits in selfed and outcrossed progeny from the greenhouse experiment. The estimates of δ were calculated as 1 minus the proportion of mean values from selfed progeny to the mean values from the outcrossed progeny (see Methods).
