| Some people think that the inbreeding clears out the harmful recessives and leads to a healthier breed for the future. |
| But regardless of why most incompatibilities act as recessives, the present results leave little doubt that they do. |
| If two of these recessives meet in an individual, their version of the trait will be expressed. |
| Yes, line breeding does result in recessives showing up but that can be a plus. |
| Instead selection causes the same increase in allele frequency in both dominants and recessives, at least early on when the fates of nearly all alleles are determined. |
| Almost all mutants were found to behave as simple Mendelian recessives. |
