I think you might have added that last sentence. I don't see why deleterious mutations in individuals would be a worry to a prolific species like Drosophila.

Remember, evolution works in populations.

I knew you didn't read. I now know you can't find a URL or you would know I did not add anything. And you still don't understand science. The authors' subject was "Compensated Deleterious Mutations in Insect Genomes" for a reason. The article was published for a reason. And that reason was not due to some run-of-the-mill event.

Sabbath was yesterday. This is Sunday. But thank you, and have a blessed third day.

Sunday is my Sabbath.

I really don't see much significance to the article you are so enamored of. I don't think you understand populations in genetics.
