Advanced optimum contribution selection as a tool to improve regional cattle breeds: a feasibility study for Vorderwald cattle

open access: yesAnimal, 2020
In the middle of the 20th century, increasing inbreeding rates were identified as a threat to livestock breeding. Consequences include reduced fertility, fitness and phenotypic expression of lethal alleles. An important step in mitigating this inbreeding
