Figure 2

Correlation between inbred and outbred female fitness. Outbred and inbred relative fitness were not correlated in the C lines (black circles, solid regression line) and were positively correlated in the MA lines (white circles, dashed regression line), indicating increased dominance of new mutations. Fitness values were calculated relative to the heterozygous control population mean.
