- Inbreeding is weirdly an important concept to understand in biology, so today we break down the history of incest and what happens when species inbreed. It is a fascinating question, with a lot of complicated genetics, moral and bioethical implications. ENJOY!!!!

"Blue eyes is a perfect example ... because it doesn't really affect anything." Me sitting over here with my light sensitivity.
It makes me sad when mommy and daddy fight in front of me 😞
Haha…I was like what??? Then I hit the 20 minute mark. 😂
FYI incest in game of thornes is portrayed as negative. The saying about Targaryens is "Madness and greatness are two sides of the same coin. Every time a new Targaryen is born, the gods toss the coin in the air and the world holds its breath to see how it will land."
Great video! Just wanted to add that the minimum number of individuals needed to avoid inbreeding effects-known as the Minimum Viable Population (MVP)-is actually specific to each species. Factors like genetic diversity, reproductive rates, and environmental pressures all play a role in determining this number. Understanding the MVP is crucial for conservation efforts to prevent inbreeding depression and ensure the long-term survival of a species. Keep up the awesome work!
22:11 the strong, albeit casual, scientific disagreement reminds me of socializing at research conferences. Two esteemed profs disagreeing over sequencing methods over some pancakes lmao
I'm from a south asian country where cousin marriages are incredibly common (you can probably find the name on Wikipedia) and in a lot of places even preferred. So yes, it definitely varies based on cultural upbringing and a society's world view. And I have now immigrated to the west, lots of people here think that incest means that the child will be some deformed monster. Nope, I have several friends and family members back home who are perfectly normal and you would never be able to tell. However, in my country due to how prevalent cousin marriages are, the rates of recessive disorders and birth defects are also higher. So you're right in that it makes populations a lot more vulnerable.
Wow I need Forrest valkai and Clint Laidlaw both on this show!!
Forrest Valkai is awesome, would love to see him on the show!

In Sweden, you can marry your first cousin
I love how you explain the recessive dominant traits. Would have loved for you also to spend more time on explaining hemophilia. It’s a blood disease I don’t get how you look at a painting and tell someone has it.

31:39 Watch Annihilation (2018) is the perfect analogy to what humans are to animals and other life forms.
To add to the comment from @frankpazdera2740, one negative portrayal of incestuous relationships in GoT was demonstrated by Joffrey Baratheon, the son of Cersei and Jaime Lannister who had emotional developmental issues.
i loved this episode ❤ thank you
in a Guardian article in May about bring new drugs to market ... Steve Wilcox called for a legal ban on first cousin marriage in the UK
"I do research that helps people with rare genetic diseases. I also work in common diseases (ones which pharma typically prefer). Often the work we put into one patient to obtain a sensible diagnosis for a rare genetic disorder is as much as we do to uncover a common disease mechanism. There is a reason why big pharma is shy to research in this area. On the other hand we should be clear about the amount of considerable cost and effort goes into the current clinical approach to rare genetic disorders.
In my research the vast majority of the cases I need to deal arise due to consanguinity. A considerably large percentage of the children suffering with a rare genetic disorder have parents who are first cousins (30% have first cousin parents and nearly 90% with elevated evidence of consanguinity -- e.g. repeated second cousin marriage). We could do a lot to alleviate the suffering in our country through outlawing first cousin marriage like we outlaw sibling marriage. In addition to creating laws we could well to better inform the public on this risk (which is seemingly ignored)."
Barry Lyndon is a great historical movie. Also Pride & Prejudice (2005).
Around 16:00: Nobel marriages were not about mutual attraction but political considerations and that was even true for peasans - even if it was to reunite plots of land that each party inherited as a result of a split when the land was bequeathed earlier.
In the village of my grandmother they had girl-twins who were so inbred, they stuttered so badly that they had to halt their walk - apart from the exceedingly thin hair.
On the recessive genes: Bunny breeders even breed for individuals that have possibly many of the recessive genes. These can then be used as an indicator for whether the main breeding stock is free of recessive genes.
I can't believe Mitch didn't know about sushi and ate it with a fork smdh 😞
I was so dumbstruck HUH
The title 😂 ☠️
Lollll
okay but if youre gay and have a silverfox dad?
Personally, I only take inbreeding/incest into consideration IF a child can be produced from intercourse. If not, then it is not a consideration. The prohibition from incest/inbreeding is the result of genetic disorders appearing in offspring from such mating practices. If there were no genetic disorders possible from the act of inbreeding/incest, then it would not be any more taboo than fornication or adultery.
