I am taking this out of "needs to be cleaned up" because I think I've cleaned it up fairly well. 128.101.70.96 15:21, 21 October 2005 (UTC)lotusduck
[edit] Hybrid vigor?
To me this seems to be the opposite of hibrid vigor, but I am niave on this subject. If this is correct, probably worthadding to the article. ike9898 04:16, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- Not really - "hybrid vigour" is a function of increased levels of heterozygosity in a population. Inbreeding depression comes from an increased frequency of deleterious alleles in a small population or from increased homozygosity in recessive deleterious alleles.
