Abstract excerpt
St Barthélémy, a small island near Guadaloupe, has been isolated since the eighteenth century. The population is made up of two geographical isolates, genetically separated. In each, the inbreeding level is increasing on account of random genetic drift, which is reinforced by village endogamy, eq...
