Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose F1 LMB and Outbreeding Depression

IMHO where outbreeding depression exists, it should affect some but not all of whatever Fx's are present due to the random recombination of genes from both parent strains. Affected individuals should tend to be eliminated in competitive situations.

I think any fish population where millions of eggs are thrown into competition yielding tens of adult survivors is extremely competitive. So maybe the outbreeding depression occurs in F1 bass offspring, but is extremely hard to ever observe.
