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.

Removing exogenous information using pedigree data
, 2011 Management of certain populations requires the preservation of its pure genetic background. When, for different reasons, undesired alleles are introduced, the original genetic conformation must be recovered.

AllCoPol: inferring allele co-ancestry in polyploids
BMC Bioinformatics, 2020 Background Inferring phylogenetic relationships of polyploid species and their diploid ancestors (leading to reticulate phylogenies in the case of an allopolyploid origin) based on multi-locus sequence data is complicated by the unknown assignment of ...

Sustainable long-term conservation of rare cattle breeds using rotational AI sires
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2008 The development of inbreeding in rotation breeding schemes, sequentially using artificial insemination (AI) sires over generations, was investigated for a full AI scheme. Asymptotic prediction formulae of inbreeding coefficients were established when the

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 ...

ESTIMATION OF THE MATING SYSTEM OF Eucalyptus benthamii Maiden at Cambage PROGENY
Revista do Instituto Florestal, 2022 Eucalyptus benthamii is an important species used in monoclonal and hybrid forest plantations around the world. Few natural populations of the species remain, and as such it has been placed on the list of endangered species.

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 ...

Encoding of low-quality DNA profiles as genotype probability matrices for improved profile comparisons, relatedness evaluation and database searches [PDF]
, 2016 Many DNA profiles recovered from crime scene samples are of a quality that does not allow them to be searched against, nor entered into, databases. We propose a method for the comparison of profiles arising from two DNA samples, one or both of which can ...
