Inbreeding depression in a critically endangered carnivore.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jul 2016

Norén Karin, Godoy Erika, Dalén Love, Meijer Tomas, Angerbjörn Anders

Abstract excerpt

Harmful effects arising from matings between relatives (inbreeding) is a long-standing observation that is well founded in theory. Empirical evidence for inbreeding depression in natural populations is however rare because of the challenges of assembling pedigrees supplemented with fitness traits. We examined the occurrence of inbreeding and subsequent inbreeding depression using a unique data set containing a...
