Quantifying the threat of extinction from Muller's ratchet in the diploid Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa)
BACKGROUND: The Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa) is a small unisexual fish that has been suspected of being threatened by extinction from the stochastic accumulation of slightly deleterious mutations that is caused by Muller's ratchet in non-recombining populations. However, no detailed quantifi...
