Reproductive biology of tropical lowland rain forest trees. I: Sexual systems and incompatibility mechanisms
Although a majority of tree species in the rain forest appear to be obligate outcrossers (xenogamons), the potential for inbreeding due to small effective population size still remains to be explored.
