The Effective Selfing Model (ESM) is a theoretical framework used in population genetics and evolutionary biology to understand the dynamics of mating systems in plants, particularly in relation to self-fertilization versus outcrossing. The key components of this model include the effects of self-fertilization on genetic diversity, the potential for inbreeding depression, and the evolutionary consequences of different mating strategies. \#\#\# Key Features of the Effective Selfing Model: 1. **Selfing vs.
