It seems like all other non-asexual earth life forms (humans, animals, etc) suffer negative effects from a limited gene pool, inbreeding, etc. so why doesn’t it affect plants?
In: Biology
It does, but the effects aren’t always so visibly obvious because it’s pretty hard to break a plant.
The broader concerns of narrow gene pools are still present, down to the extreme example of the all-clone banana crop’s severe infection weakness.
