Effect of Individual Rate of Inbreeding, Recent and Ancestral Inbreeding on Wool Quality, Muscling Conformation and Exterior in German Sheep Breeds [PDF]
Animals, 2023 This study provides comprehensive results on the current status of inbreeding depression for traits upon which sheep are selected for the herdbook in Germany. A total of 30 sheep breeds from the OviCap national database met the inclusion criteria for the

Ballou’s Ancestral Inbreeding Coefficient: Formulation and New Estimate with Higher Reliability [PDF]
AnimalsInbreeding is unavoidable in small populations. However, the deleterious effects of inbreeding on fitness-related traits (inbreeding depression) may not be an inevitable phenomenon, since deleterious recessive alleles causing inbreeding depression might ...

Revised Calculation of Kalinowski’s Ancestral and New Inbreeding Coefficients [PDF]
Diversity, 2020 To test for the presence of purging in populations, the classical pedigree-based inbreeding coefficient (F) can be decomposed into Kalinowski’s ancestral (FANC) and new (FNEW) inbreeding coefficients.

Animals, 2022 Loss of genetic diversity and high inbreeding rates confer an increased risk of congenital anomalies and diseases and thus impacting dog breeding. In this study, we analyzed recent and ancestral inbreeding as well as other measures of genetic variability

Genetic Diversity and Trends of Ancestral and New Inbreeding in German Sheep Breeds by Pedigree Data
Animals, 2023 In Germany, many autochthonous sheep breeds have developed, adapted to mountain, heath, moorland, or other marginal sites, but breeds imported from other countries have also contributed to the domestic breeds, particularly improving wool and meat quality.

Population sequencing reveals clonal diversity and ancestral inbreeding in the grapevine cultivar Chardonnay. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 Chardonnay is the basis of some of the world's most iconic wines and its success is underpinned by a historic program of clonal selection. There are numerous clones of Chardonnay available that exhibit differences in key viticultural and oenological ...

Animal, 2009 We reasoned that mating animals by minimising the covariance between ancestral contributions (MCAC mating) will generate less inbreeding and at least as much genetic gain as minimum-coancestry mating in breeding schemes where the animals are truncation ...

ANCESTRAL INBREEDING REDUCES THE MAGNITUDE OF INBREEDING DEPRESSION IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER [PDF]
Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 2006 The influence of natural selection on the magnitude of inbreeding depression is an important issue in conservation biology and the study of evolution. It is generally expected that the magnitude of inbreeding depression in small populations will depend upon the average homozygosity of individuals, as measured by the coefficient of inbreeding (F ...

Genomic analysis of the inbreeding load for body weight, carcass and reproductive traits in the Rubia Gallega beef cattle population [PDF]
Genetics Selection EvolutionBackground Inbreeding, resulting from mating between relatives, leads to inbreeding depression, which can be traced back to hidden ancestral inbreeding loads.
