No signal of deleterious mutation accumulation in conserved gene sequences of extant asexual hexapods

Loss of sex and recombination is generally assumed to impede the effectiveness of purifying selection and to result in the accumulation of slightly deleterious mutations. Empirical evidence for this has come from several studies investigating mutational load in a small number of individual genes. Ho...
