Male proportion of synthetic load for different levels of X-linked dominance. Synthetic load refers to the amount that a population’s fitness is below maximum due to synthetic incompatibilities. Three levels of X-linked dominance are considered: complete recessivity (shaded line), intermediate dominance (dashed solid line), and complete dominance (solid line). Autosomal dominance does not influence the proportion of synthetic load that is male or female.
