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 ...

Advantages of using molecular coancestry in the removal of introgressed genetic material [PDF]
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2013 When introgression of undesired exogenous genetic material occurs in a population intended to remain pure, actions are necessary to recover the original background. It has been shown that genome-wide information can replace pedigree information for different objectives and is a valuable tool in the fields of genetic conservation and breeding.

A proximal decomposition of inbreeding, coancestry and contributions
Genetics Research, 2008 SummaryWright's (1922) coalescence probabilistic method decomposes the average coancestry or the average inbreeding of the population of interest into contributions of ancestors who are directly responsible for coancestry. These ancestors are less numerous and younger than those given by Caballero & Toro's (2000) method.

Evolutionary Applications, 2021 The inbreeding coefficient (F) of individuals can be estimated from molecular marker data, such as SNPs, using measures of homozygosity of individual markers or runs of homozygosity (ROH) across the genome.

Improved dairy cattle mating plans at herd level using genomic information
Animal, 2021 From 2012 to 2018, 223 180 Montbéliarde females were genotyped in France and the number of newly genotyped females increased at a rate of about 33% each year.

General inbreeding coefficient of maize synthetics derived from three-way line hybrids
Terra Latinoamericana, 2019 The scarcity of pure and unrelated maize inbred lines that possess high combining ability in Mexico has led breeders wishing to form single crosses to develop double-cross or three-way line hybrids (TWLHs) instead.

Pedigree analysis and inbreeding effects over morphological traits in Campolina horse population
Animal, 2018 Genetic improvement, without control of inbreeding, can go to loss of genetic variability, reducing the potential for genetic gains in the domestic populations.

Population structure of the Trakehner Horse breed
Animal, 2009 The objective of this study was to examine the population structure of the Trakehner Horse breed. A total of 13 793 pedigree records were used for analysing the active breeding population and their ancestors dating back to 1950.

ESTIMATION OF THE COANCESTRY COEFFICIENT: BASIS FOR A SHORT-TERM GENETIC DISTANCE [PDF]
Genetics, 1983 ABSTRACT A distance measure for populations diverging by drift only is based on the coancestry coefficient θ, and three estimators of the distance D = -ln(1 - θ) are constructed for multiallelic, multilocus data. Simulations of a monoecious population mating at random showed that a weighted ratio of single-locus estimators performed ...
