Inbreeding depression in one of the last DFTD-free wild populations of Tasmanian devils
BACKGROUND: Vulnerable species experiencing inbreeding depression are prone to localised extinctions because of their reduced fitness. For Tasmanian devils, the rapid spread of devil facial tumour disease (DFTD) has led to population declines and fragmentation across the species’ range. Here we show...
