Genetic load may increase or decrease with selfing depending upon the recombination environment
Shelley A. Sianta, Stephan Peischl, David A. Moeller, Yaniv J Brandvain
This study uses simulations to show that selfing rate can increase or decrease genetic load depending on recombination and mutation interactions, with a threshold selfing rate preventing pseudo-overdominance.
