Inbreeding depression in red deer calves
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Understanding the fitness consequences of inbreeding is of major importance for evolutionary and conservation biology. However, there are few studies using pedigree-based estimates of inbreeding or investigating the influence of envi...
