the claim

Inbreeding increases the effective genetic relatedness between offspring and parents.

the verdict
COMMON KNOWLEDGE
Legacy classification; evidence review pending
Recorded sources
no sources on either side

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that inbreeding increases the effective genetic relatedness between offspring and parents?

Inbreeding increases identity by descent and therefore raises the effective genetic relatedness between offspring and their parents by definition, making this a matter of common knowledge.

The analysis

The claim is a fundamental definition in population genetics: inbreeding increases the probability that alleles at a locus are identical by descent, thereby increasing the coefficient of relatedness between parents and offspring. By definition and basic everyday observation in genetics, no citation is needed as this is a truism of pedigree analysis.
