Long-term and extensive population decline drives elevated expression of genetic load in a critically endangered seabird
2023-05-22
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Endangered species serve as valuable models to understand the genetic legacy of historical demographic bottlenecks. Genomic erosion compromises the efficiency of purifying selection on deleterious mutations, thus reducing species’ adaptive potential. Untangling demographic history and its genetic legacy remains a significant challenge for endangered species. Comparing genomic characteri...
