Genomic evidence for inbreeding depression and purging of deleterious genetic variation in Indian tigers

Increasing habitat fragmentation leads to wild populations becoming small, isolated, and threatened by inbreeding depression. However, small populations may be able to purge recessive deleterious alleles as they become expressed in homozygotes, thus reducing inbreeding depression and increasing popu...
