Variation in the strength and softness of selection on deleterious mutations

A Laffafian, JD King, AF Agrawal - Evolution, 2010 - academic.oup.com
Deleterious alleles constantly enter populations through mutation. Understanding the nature
of selection against such alleles is required to assess their impact on populations. In a …

Ecological determinants of mutation load and inbreeding depression in subdivided populations

AF Agrawal - The American Naturalist, 2010 - journals.uchicago.edu
Population structure can dramatically alter mutation load, but the magnitude and direction of
this effect depend on whether selection is soft or hard. The abstract nature of previous load …
