No evidence of inbreeding depression in a Tasmanian devil insurance population despite significant variation in inbreeding
Abstract Inbreeding depression occurs when inbred individuals experience reduced fitness as a result of reduced genome-wide heterozygosity. The Tasmanian devil faces extinction due to a contagious cancer, devil facial tumour disease (DFTD). An insurance metapopulation was established in 2006 to ensu...
