Rapid selection against inbreeding in a wild population of a rare frog

Populations that are small and isolated can be threatened through loss of fitness due to inbreeding. Nevertheless, an increased frequency of recessive homozygotes could increase the efficiency of selection against deleterious mutants, thus reducing inbreeding depression. In wild populations, observa...
