Effective Population Size of Korean Populations [PDF]
Recently, new methods have been developed for estimating the current and recent changes in effective population sizes. Based on the methods, the effective population sizes of Korean populations were estimated using data from the Korean Association ...

Prediction and estimation of effective population size [PDF]
Effective population size (Ne) is a key parameter in population genetics. It has important applications in evolutionary biology, conservation genetics, and plant and animal breeding, because it measures the rates of genetic drift and inbreeding and ...

Restricted selection and effective population size [PDF]
Une methode de selection simple et flexible, appelee «selection par troncature avec restriction», a ete mise au point pour retenir les individus superieurs dans des populations a structure familiale. La restriction revient a imposer des contraintes sur la contribution des familles au groupe selectionne et sur le nombre de familles autorisees a ...

The effective size of bryophyte populations
Bryophytes with their dominant haploid stage conform poorly to the life cycles generally treated in population genetical models. Here we make a detailed analysis of what effective sizes bryophyte model populations have as a function of their breeding system.

Exploring the genetic features and signatures of selection in South China indigenous pigs
To explore the genetic features and signatures of selection in indigenous pigs from South China and Duroc pigs, 259 pigs from six populations were genotyped using single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) BeadChips.

Pedigree analysis in the Polish Red cattle population
The objective of this study was to describe the population structure and inbreeding level of the population of Polish Red Cattle (PRC). The structure of the breed was analysed in the context of the existing genetic resources conservation programme.

Calculation of the effective population size and estimating of total population size using mitochondrial DNA sequencing in Hamedan, Qazvin and Zanjan provinces [PDF]
Although wolves have the ability to live in different habitat types, in recent years their population has been drastically reduced in most parts of the country and in some areas has become extinct.

An empirical examination of sample size effects on population demographic estimates in birds using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data [PDF]
Sample size is a critical aspect of study design in population genomics research, yet few empirical studies have examined the impacts of small sample sizes.
