Cryptic inbreeding depression in a growing population of a long-lived species.

Molecular ecology - 1 Feb 2017

Abstract excerpt

Genetic effects are often overlooked in endangered species monitoring, and populations showing positive growth are often assumed to be secure. However, the continued reproductive success of a few individuals may mask issues such as inbreeding depression, especially in long-lived species. Here, we test for inbreeding depression in little spotted kiwi (Apteryx owenii) by comparing a population founded with two...
