Reduction of inbreeding in commercial females by rotational mating with several sire lines
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2004 A mating system to reduce the inbreeding of commercial females in the lower level was examined theoretically, assuming a hierarchical breed structure, in which favorable genes are accumulated in the upper level by artificial selection and the achieved ...

Use of Cluster Analysis for Identifying Metafounders
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the metafounder approach, the relationship matrix of metafounders, Γ$$ \boldsymbol{\Gamma} $$ is used to transfer information on relationships between pedigree founders into the numerator relationship matrix A$$ \mathbf{A} $$, creating matrix AΓ$$ {\mathbf{A}}^{\boldsymbol{\Gamma}} $$.

Identification and validation of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for canine hip dysplasia (CHD) in German Shepherd Dogs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Canine hip dysplasia (CHD) is the most common hereditary skeletal disorder in dogs. To identify common alleles associated with CHD, we genotyped 96 German Shepherd Dogs affected by mild, moderate and severe CHD and 96 breed, sex, age and birth year ...

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT The endangered Austrian Turopolje (AT) pig population, which originated from six Croatian Turopolje founders imported during the early 1990s, is nowadays preserved through a national conservation project. This study aims to identify genetic relations, genetic distances and migration events between the AT population, four Austrian commercial ...

Democracy, Judicial Attitudes and Heterogeneity: The Civil Versus Common Law Tradition [PDF]
, 2009 A key issue in the design of a legal system is the choice of the mechanism aggregating citizens ’ preferences over the harshness of punishment. While under Case law appellate judges ’ biases offset one another at the cost of volatility of the law, under ...

Inferring Coancestry in Population Samples in the Presence of Linkage Disequilibrium [PDF]
Genetics, 2012 Abstract In both pedigree linkage studies and in population-based association studies there has been much interest in the use of modern dense genetic marker data to infer segments of gene identity by descent (ibd) among individuals not known to be related, to increase power and resolution in localizing genes affecting complex traits.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...
