Autozygosity and genetic load as sensitive early warnings of butterfly population decline

S. Fava, Marco Gargano, Dona Kireta…·Emiliano Trucchi

This study identifies genomic signatures of population decline in the Ponza grayling butterfly using comparative genomics and shows that autozygosity and realized genetic load are better indicators of decline than heterozygosity.
