Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity is crucial for evolutionary resilience. Endangered species often suffer from reduced genetic diversity, elevated inbreeding, and accumulated genetic load due to population decline. However, some endangered species with small populations exhibit high genetic diversity and low inbreeding depression, indicating gaps in our understanding of evolutionary processes shaping genetic resilience. In this...
