Background  Operation of natural selection can be characterized by a variety of quantities. Among them, variance of relative fitness  V  and load  L  are the most fundamental.    Results  Among all modes of selection that produce a particular value  V  of the variance of relative fitness, the minimal value  L   min   of load  L  is produced by a mode under which fitness takes only two values, 0 and some positive value, and is equal to  V/(1+V) .    Conclusions  Although it is impossible to deduce the load from knowledge of the variance of relative fitness alone, it is possible to determine the minimal load consistent with a particular variance of relative fitness. The concept of minimal load consistent with a particular biological phenomenon may be applicable to studying several aspects of natural selection.    Reviewers  The manuscript was reviewed by Sergei Maslov, Alexander Gordon, and Eugene Koonin.
