Definition of genetic load in English: genetic loadnoun mass nounBiology The presence of unfavourable genetic material in the genes of a population. Example sentencesExamples - Once this mating type dominates a population, it is very unlikely to break down even when the population becomes small because of the high genetic load it implies.
- Simplistically, the heavier the genetic load the earlier the onset and the lower the threshold for environmental triggering.
- In his first year, he worked on the genetic load of chronically irradiated populations of D. melanogaster.
- Using interval mapping to dissect genetic load, research showed a prevalence of semilethal rather than lethal factors in two conifers.
- In a large out-breeding population, genetic load will be maximised but because of the out-breeding pattern, the number of reproductively detective offspring will be low.
