In the original publication of the article, Figs. 5 and 6 were published incorrectly. The correct Figs. 5 and 6 are given in this correction.

Percentage of surviving populations through generations. Different rows of panels give results under a different migration scenario: one unique migration event; two migrations with an interval of five generations; periodic migrations every five generations; “one migrant per generation” strategy. Different columns are for different N1N2 demographic scenarios, coded as in Fig. 3 panels. Light dashed lines give the percentage of surviving populations under no rescue program while solid lines give results under the rescue program. Number of migrants per event as explained in Box 1

Mutational models. a Probability density function (PDF) of the homozygous deleterious mutational effects multiplied by the deleterious mutation rate. Red line: Model inferred from evolutionary genomic analysis by Kim et al. (2017) (best fit model for the 1000 genomes data: mutation rate per gamete and generation 0.314, homozygous effect s gamma distributed with shape parameter 0.186 and mean 0.0161, predicted equilibrium inbreeding load B = 3.07 for effective size 104). Black line: Model used in our simulations (mutation rate per gamete and generation 0.2, s gamma distributed with shape parameter 0.33 and mean 0.2, predicted equilibrium inbreeding load B = 6.3 for effective size 104); the lethal class generated in this model by assigning s = 1 to s values above 1 is represented in the [0.99–1] interval. b The black thick line gives the average inbreeding coefficient as a function of s assumed in our simulations, where h is uniformly distributed between 0 and the thin black line (extracted from García-Dorado and Caballero 2000 and García-Dorado 2003). The red line gives the h values used by Kyriazis et al. (2020) simulations, which are constant for each value of s
