Short communication: The importance of random effects in detecting purging of inbreeding depression: A model comparison in Pannon White rabbits

Inbreeding depression (ID) is a well-documented phenomenon associated with reduced fitness and possible extinction. However, ID can be mitigated or even eliminated through the interplay of inbreeding and selection, a process known as purging. The aim of this study was to compare the predictive power...
