Maladaptive

leading to lower fitness

3
New cards

Deleterious mutation

A mutation or other event that lowers fitness. 

4
New cards

Inbreeding depression:

Reductions in the average fitness of individuals in a population, due to the increased prevalence of homozygous recessive genotypes that have deleterious effects.

5
New cards

Extinction vortex

In some genetically isolated populations, a self-reinforcing cycle that lowers fitness and population size.
