Incomplete dominance of deleterious alleles contributes substantially to trait variation and heterosis in maize

Deleterious alleles have long been proposed to play an important role in patterning phenotypic variation and are central to commonly held ideas explaining the hybrid vigor observed in the offspring of a cross between two inbred parents. We test these ideas using evolutionary measures of sequence con...
