Population structure and inbreeding of Holstein cattle in southern Brazil
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2020 The present investigation aimed to evaluate the population structure and inbreeding of Holstein herds in southern Brazil. To carry out the analysis, the Associação Paranaense de Criadores de Bovinos da Raça Holandesa (APCBRH) in Brazil provided the data,

Ancestry-specific recent effective population size in the Americas. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 Populations change in size over time due to factors such as population growth, migration, bottleneck events, natural disasters, and disease. The historical effective size of a population affects the power and resolution of genetic association studies ...

Pacific salmon and the coalescent effective population size. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Pacific salmon include several species that are both commercially important and endangered. Understanding the causes of loss in genetic variation is essential for designing better conservation strategies.

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2021 Cepaea vindobonensis (Gastropoda, Pulmonata, Helicidae) is a terrestrial mollusk, protected in the Belgorod Region (European Russia). In the Bekaryukovsky Bor Natural Monument, its peripheral population is known considering to be one of the most abundant

Understanding past population dynamics: Bayesian coalescent-based modeling with covariates [PDF]
, 2016 Effective population size characterizes the genetic variability in a population and is a parameter of paramount importance in population genetics. Kingman's coalescent process enables inference of past population dynamics directly from molecular sequence

, 2007 Spatially resolved genetic data is increasingly used to reconstruct the migrational history of species. To assist such inference, we study, by means of simulations and analytical methods, the dynamics of neutral gene frequencies in a population ...

Harvest-induced evolution and effective population size [PDF]
, 2016 Much has been written about fishery-induced evolution (FIE) in exploited species, but relatively little attention has been paid to the consequences for one of the most important parameters in evolutionary biology-effective population size (N-e). We use a

Effective Size of Auto-tetraploid Population Under Partial Selfing [PDF]
, 2015 Effective population size is defined as the number of breeding individual in an idealized population that would show the same amount of dispersion of allele frequencies under random genetic drift or the same amount of inbreeding as the population under ...
