On the close relationship between speciation, inbreeding and recessive mutations. [PDF]
, 2010 Whilst the principle of adaptive evolution is unanimously recognised as being caused by the process of natural selection favouring the survival and/or reproduction of individuals having acquired new advantageous traits, a consensus has proven much harder

The existence of species rests on a metastable equilibrium between inbreeding and outbreeding [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Speciation corresponds to the progressive establishment of reproductive barriers between groups of individuals derived from an ancestral stock.

purgeR: inbreeding and purging in pedigreed populations [PDF]
, 2021 SummaryInbreeding depression and genetic purging are important processes shaping the survivability and evolution of small populations. However, detecting purging is challenging in practice, in part because there are limited tools dedicated to it.

The role of inbreeding depression on productive performance in the Italian Holstein breed [PDF]
, 2023 Inbreeding depression has become an urgent issue in cosmopolitan breeds where the massive genetic progress achieved in the latest generations is counterbalanced by a dramatic loss of genetic diversity causing increased health issues.

Effects of pedigree errors on the efficiency of conservation decisions [PDF]
, 2009 Conservation schemes often aim at increasing genetic diversity by minimizing kinship, and the best method to achieve this goal, when pedigree data is available, is to apply optimal contributions.

Inbreeding depression for kit survival at birth in a rabbit population under long-term selection
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2020 Background Accumulation of detrimental mutations in small populations leads to inbreeding depression of fitness traits and a higher frequency of genetic defects, thus increasing risk of extinction.

BMC Genomics, 2021 Background Although inbreeding caused by the mating of animals related through a recent common ancestor is expected to have more harmful effects on phenotypes than ancient inbreeding (old inbreeding), estimating these effects requires a clear definition ...
