Severe inbreeding, increased mutation load and gene loss-of-function in the critically endangered Devils Hole pupfish
Small populations with limited range are often threatened by inbreeding and reduced genetic diversity, which can reduce fitness and exacerbate population decline. One of the most extreme natural examples is the Devils Hole pupfish (Cyprinodon diabolis), an iconic and critically endangered species wi...
