Estimating Linkage Disequilibrium and Effective Population Size Across Generations in Holstein Cattle

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 6, November 2025.
This study reveals a significant historical decline in effective population size (Ne) in Holstein cattle due to intensive breeding, with recent stabilization reflecting improved genetic management. Maintaining genetic diversity is vital for sustainable dairy cattle breeding programs.

Autozygome sequencing expands the horizon of human knockout research and provides novel insights into human phenotypic variation.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
The use of autozygosity as a mapping tool in the search for autosomal recessive disease genes is well established. We hypothesized that autozygosity not only unmasks the recessiveness of disease causing variants, but can also reveal natural knockouts of ...

Application of genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism typing: simple association and beyond. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2006
The International HapMap Project and the arrival of technologies that type more than 100,000 SNPs in a single experiment have made genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (GW-SNP) assay a realistic endeavor.

High Imputation Accuracy Can Be Achieved Using a Small Reference Panel in a Natural Population With Low Genetic Diversity

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Genotype imputation, the inference of missing genotypes using a reference set of population haplotypes, is a cost‐effective tool for improving the quality and quantity of genetic datasets. Imputation is usually applied to large and well‐characterised datasets of humans and livestock, even though it could also benefit smaller natural ...

A post‐translocation genetic analysis of an endemic wingless grasshopper in urban environments

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
Translocations are increasingly used in conservation, yet invertebrate outcomes remain understudied. This study assessed genetic diversity in a recently translocated flightless grasshopper (Vandiemenella viatica), finding declines in heterozygosity and nucleotide diversity, alongside increased homozygosity in the F2 generation.

Age-based partitioning of individual genomic inbreeding levels in Belgian Blue cattle

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2017
Background Inbreeding coefficients can be estimated either from pedigree data or from genomic data, and with genomic data, they are either global or local (when the linkage map is used).

Estimation of Inbreeding Depression From Overdominant Loci Using Molecular Markers

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Inbreeding depression is a highly relevant universal phenomenon in population and conservation genetics since it leads to a decline in the fitness of individuals. This phenomenon is due to the homozygous expression of alleles whose effects are hidden in heterozygotes (inbreeding load).

Genomic Diversity as a Key Conservation Criterion: Proof‐of‐Concept From Mammalian Whole‐Genome Resequencing Data

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications
Many international, national, state, and local organizations prioritize the ranking of threatened and endangered species to help direct conservation efforts. For example, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) assesses the Green Status
