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.

Pedigree analysis and inbreeding effects over morphological traits in Campolina horse population

open access: yesAnimal, 2018
Genetic improvement, without control of inbreeding, can go to loss of genetic variability, reducing the potential for genetic gains in the domestic populations.

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.

Population structure of the Trakehner Horse breed

open access: yesAnimal, 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.

Variation in actual relationship among descendants of inbred individuals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In previous analyses, the variation in actual, or realized, relationship has been derived as a function of map length of chromosomes and type of relationship, the variation being greater the shorter the total chromosome length and the coefficient of ...

Fertility Variation and Effective Population Size in a Teak Clonal Seed Orchard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A 27 year old clonal seed orchard of teak (Tectona grandis L.f ) in Padangan, East Java comprising 24 clones, was evaluated for fertility, offspring diversity, and genetic drift.

Genomic inbreeding estimation in small populations: Evaluation of runs of homozygosity in three local dairy cattle breeds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In the local breeds with small population size, one of the most important problems is the increase of inbreeding coefficient (F). High levels of inbreeding lead to reduced genetic diversity and inbreeding depression.

A proximal decomposition of inbreeding, coancestry and contributions

open access: yesGenetics 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.
