AbstractPopulations may respond to environmental changes through phenotypic plasticity, adaptation, migration, or suffer demographic declines if they are unable to respond. Climate change is already causing shifts in species ranges, changes in phenotypes, and altered life history traits and interspecific interactions.

Inbreeding and Inbreeding Depression
2020Inbreeding (also referred to as “consanguinity”) occurs when mates are related to each other due to incest, assortative mating, small population size, or population sub-structuring. Inbreeding results in an excess of homozygotes and hence a deficiency of heterozygotes.

Inbreeding, inbreeding depression and extinction
Conservation Genetics, 2007Inbreeding is unavoidable in small, isolated populations and can cause substantial fitness reductions compared to outbred populations. This loss of fitness has been predicted to elevate extinction risk giving it substantial conservation significance.

The genetics of inbreeding depression
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2009Inbreeding depression - the reduced survival and fertility of offspring of related individuals - occurs in wild animal and plant populations as well as in humans, indicating that genetic variation in fitness traits exists in natural populations. Inbreeding depression is important in the evolution of outcrossing mating systems and, because intercrossing

Inbreeding is the mating of related individuals. It leads to a reduced number of heterozygotes and ultimately to complete homozygosity. Inbreeding depression is often observed with inbreeding and can be defined as the decrease in mean value of a trait due to inbreeding.

Experimental Inbreeding Depression
Forest Science, 1982Abstract Desirable properties of mating designs for evaluation of inbreeding depression are developed in the context of tree breeding plans. Benefits of organizing contrasts among inbreeding levels orthogonally to contrasts among general combining abilities of the mated relatives are illustrated by analysis of an example.

Inbreeding depression in Leccese sheep
Small Ruminant Research, 2010Three closed flocks of Leccese sheep reared in southern Italy were used to study the effects of inbreeding on productive and reproductive performances. All the animals were grouped into three classes according to the inbreeding coefficients obtained by their pedigree: the first class included non-inbred animals (F = 0%); and the second and third ...

Simultaneous inbreeding modifies inbreeding depression in a plant–herbivore interaction
Ecology Letters, 2013AbstractBecause inbreeding is common in natural populations of plants and their herbivores, herbivore‐induced selection on plants, and vice versa, may be significantly modified by inbreeding and inbreeding depression. In a feeding assay with inbred and outbred lines of both the perennial herb, Vincetoxicum hirundinaria, and its specialist herbivore ...
