Inbreeding depression by environment interactions in a free-living mammal population.

Heredity - 1 Jan 2017

Pemberton J M, Ellis P E, Pilkington J G, Bérénos C

Abstract excerpt

Experimental studies often find that inbreeding depression is more severe in harsh environments, but the few studies of in situ wild populations available to date rarely find strong support for this effect. We investigated evidence for inbreeding depression by environment interactions in nine traits in the individually monitored Soay sheep population of St Kilda, using genomic inbreeding coefficients based on...
