Figure 2

Variation in inbreeding (realized GWIBD) for offspring of a full-sib mating (a, b), first-cousin mating (c, d) and second-cousin mating (e, f). Left panels show the results for zebra finches and right panels show the results for humans, both derived from 10 000 simulation runs on the simple designed pedigree depicted in Supplementary Figure S3. The black lines indicate the expected inbreeding coefficients calculated with Wright’s path method (1/4, 1/16 and 1/64, respectively).
