Human deleterious mutation rate implies high fitness variance, with declining mean fitness compensated by rarer beneficial mutations of larger effect
Each new human has an expected U(d) = 2 – 10 new deleterious mutations. This deluge of deleterious mutations cannot all be purged, and therefore accumulate in a declining fitness ratchet. Using a novel simulation framework designed to efficiently handle genome-wide linkage disequilibria across many...
