Application of optimal contribution selection, trait distribution management, and group selection in layer chickens

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution
Background Optimal Contribution Selection (OCS) aims at maximizing long term response to selection by balancing short term genetic gain and inbreeding rate.

Coancestry superposed on admixed populations yields measures of relatedness at individual-level resolution.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
The admixture model is widely applied to estimate and interpret population structure among individuals. Here we consider a "standard admixture" model that assumes the admixed populations are unrelated and also a generalized model, where the admixed ...

Pedigree analysis in the mhorr gazelle (Nanger dama mhorr): Genetic variability evolution of the captive population

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Breeding programs have an essential role in the recovery of threatened populations through optimal genetic management and mating strategies. The dama gazelle (Nanger dama) is a North African ungulate listed as critically endangered.

On the principle underlying the tabular method to compute coancestry

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1991
The tabular method to compute coancestry between two individuals is based on the principle that coancestry may be computed as the average coancestry between one individual and the parents of the other, on the condition that the former individual is not a direct descendent of the latter.
