The genetic load (L) in a chain of demes with gradually changing contributions from parental populations ranging from 1:0 to 0:1 in the presence of X–A sex-biased incompatibilities. (a) L under the unidirectional X1A2 heterogametic incompatibilities; (b) L under the unidirectional X1A2 homogametic incompatibilities; (c) L of the different unidirectional or bidirectional incompatibilities after equilibration is established. 2-way ht, compounding bidirectional heterogametic incompatibilities; 2-way ho, compounding bidirectional homogametic incompatibilities; 1-way ho, unidirectional homogametic incompatibility; 1-way ht, unidirectional heterogametic incompatibility.
