Nonequivalent lethal equivalents: Models and inbreeding metrics for unbiased estimation of inbreeding load
Abstract Inbreeding depression, the deterioration in mean trait value in progeny of related parents, is a fundamental quantity in genetics, evolutionary biology, animal and plant breeding, and conservation biology. The magnitude of inbreeding depression can be quantified by the inbreeding load, typi...
