Telomere length reveals cumulative individual and transgenerational inbreeding effects in a passerine bird
Inbreeding results in more homozygous offspring that should suffer reduced fitness, but it can be difficult to quantify these costs for several reasons. First, inbreeding depression may vary with ecological or physiological stress and only be detectable over long time periods. Second, parental homoz...
