On the three methods for estimating deleterious genomic mutation parameters.
Both contemporary fears about the deleterious effects of intervention and academic assumptions about state control of the elderly seem misplaced.
Any exercise of the animal propensities, for whatever purpose, would have deleterious consequences in all aspects of life.
Conditions on these exoplanets are likely to be inhospitable or extremely deleterious to life as we know it.
A second reason is that indirect selection may be more efficient, whether it acts on favored alleles (genetic hitchhiking) or on deleterious mutations (background selection).
Put otherwise, in a context in which there are unequal power relations, a deleterious homogenisation seems likely, if not inevitable.
However, in the same way as pathological fear and anxiety are debilitating, excessive or prolonged sickness behaviour may be deleterious.
A less common, and more deleterious, mechanism of spontaneous closure is prolapse of the aortic alve into the defect.
If this means genetic linkage, that can sometimes explain the presence of deleterious traits.
However, there are no reports of deleterious effects in human fetuses.
Broadly speaking, greater self-fertilization decreases element number under deleterious insertion and increases element number with regulation through ectopic exchange.
Deleterious mutations, apparent stabilizing selection and the maintenance of quantitative variation.
Deleterious mutations in a hybrid zone : can mutational load decrease the barrier to gene flow ?
One possible explanation for this discrepancy is synergistic epistasis among the fitness effects of deleterious mutations.
Thus, the masking effect of a wild-type allele does not appear to be very strong when weakly deleterious mutations are considered.
