Genetic Load and Adaptive Potential of a Recovered Avian Species that Narrowly Avoided Extinction
Femerling, Georgette; van Oosterhout, Cock; Feng, Shaohong; Bristol, Rachel M.; Zhang, Guojie; Groombridge, Jim; Gilbert, Marcus Thomas Pius; Morales, Hernán E (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)High genetic diversity is a good predictor of long-term population viability, yet some species persevere despite having low genetic diversity. Here we study the genomic erosion of the Seychelles paradise flycatcher ... -
Purging and accumulation of genetic load in conservation
Dussex, Nicolas; Morales, Hernan E; Grossen, Christine; Dalén, Love; van Oosterhout, Cock (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Our ability to assess the threat posed by the genetic load to small and declining populations has been greatly improved by advances in genome sequencing and computational approaches. Yet, considerable confusion remains ...
