The average rate of gene flow among established populations of a species is
often quite low , and is especially likely to be low if immigrating individuals must
compete with residents to survive and reproduce . However , the effective rate of

POPULATION FITNESS AND GENETIC LOAD When allele frequencies change
by natural selection and the average fitness w rises , it seems reasonable to say
that less well adapted genotypes are replaced by better adapted genotypes .
