On the genetic parameter determining the efficiency of purging: an estimate for Drosophila egg-to-pupae viability.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Feb 2013

Bersabé D, García-Dorado A

Abstract excerpt

The consequences of inbreeding on fitness can be crucial in evolutionary and conservation grounds and depend upon the efficiency of purging against deleterious recessive alleles. Recently, analytical expressions have been derived to predict the evolution of mean fitness, taking into account both inbreeding and purging, which depend on an 'effective purging coefficient (d(e) )'. Here, we explore the validity of...
