Genetic diversity and inbreeding in the Greek Skyros horse [PDF]
Inbreeding and heterozygosity levels were calculated in a population of 77 horses of the endangered Skyros breed that had been raised since 1988 at an experimental farm. Twenty one horses were inbred with average inbreeding coefficient of 0.11 (+/-0.02).
