A simulation study on detecting purging of inbreeding depression in captive populations.

Genetical research - 1 Oct 2005

Boakes Elizabeth, Wang Jinliang

Abstract excerpt

Inbreeding depression threatens the survival of small populations of both captive and wild outbreeding species. In order to fully understand this threat, it is necessary to investigate what role purging plays in reducing inbreeding depression. Ballou (1997) undertook such an investigation on 25 mammalian populations, using an ancestral inbreeding regression model to detect purging. He concluded that there was a...
