Optimizing mating schemes in fish breeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The optimal contribution selection method and the simulated annealing algorithm were used to maximize the genetic gain and reduce inbreeding in fish breeding populations.

Mating animals by minimising the covariance between ancestral contributions generates less inbreeding without compromising genetic gain in breeding schemes with truncation selection

open access: yesAnimal, 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 ...

Genetic variability of some Italian and Polish duck breeds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study is aimed to estimate and compare the inter- and within-breed variability of duck populations under genetic conservation programmes. The following four duck breeds were analysed: Germanata Veneta (AGV) and Mignon (AMG) from Italy, Pekin Krajowy

General inbreeding coefficient of maize synthetics derived from three-way line hybrids

open access: yesTerra 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.

Improving Pedigree-based Linkage Analysis by Estimating Coancestry Among Families [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
We present a method for improving the power of linkage analysis by detecting chromosome segments shared identical by descent (IBD) by individuals not known to be related. Existing Markov chain Monte Carlo methods sample descent patterns on pedigrees conditional on observed marker data.

On the estimation of inbreeding depression using different measures of inbreeding from molecular markers

open access: yesEvolutionary 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

open access: yesAnimal, 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.

Sistema de reprodução em populações de Eschweilera ovata (Cambess.) Miers Mating system in Eschweilera ovata (Cambess.) Miers populations

open access: yesRevista Árvore, 2006
O sistema de reprodução de duas populações de Eschweilera ovata foi quantificado por análise de isoenzimas em estrutura de progênies usando os modelos misto de reprodução e cruzamentos correlacionados.

The effect of multiple paternity on genetic diversity during and after colonisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In metapopulations, genetic variation of local populations is influenced by the genetic content of the founders, and of migrants following establishment.
