Populations in heterotic equilibrium show a greater percentage decrease than populations in mutational equilibrium, but the difference is very small for rare genes. Mortality and morbidity data on inbred offspring from consanguineous marriages cannot distinguish genes in one type of equilibrium from those in another. The current concept of genetic load is based on artefacts rather than on inherent properties of populations, and it leads to erroneous conclusions.
