Environmental effects on long-range outcrossing rates in maize

[Display omitted] ► The outcrossing rate did not reach zero even at points 800 m distant from pollen source. ► The outcrossing rate at long distances continued to decrease in a very gradual manner. ► The reduction of outcrossing rate with distance is smaller under higher wind speed. ► The distributi...
