The strength of the association between heterozygosity and probability of interannual local recruitment increases with environmental harshness in blue tits
The extent of inbreeding depression and the magnitude of heterozygosity–fitness correlations (HFC) have been suggested to depend on the environmental context in which they are assayed, but little evidence is available for wild populations. We combine extensive molecular and capture–mark–recapture da...
