Genome‐Wide Homozygosity Predicts Inbreeding Depression in the Hihi/Stitchbird (Notiomystis cincta) Better Than Realised Load [PDF]
Evolutionary ApplicationsPopulation declines result in increasingly small populations, which often experience an increase in inbreeding. Inbreeding may be negatively associated with fitness traits like survival and reproduction, that is, inbreeding depression, and is therefore ...

No Pedigree, No Problem: Genomic Inbreeding Tracks Genetic Rescue With High Resolution [PDF]
Evolutionary ApplicationsWith increasing habitat fragmentation and population isolation, inbreeding becomes a pressing concern for the persistence of wildlife populations. Detailed inbreeding monitoring is crucial for assessing extinction risk and evaluating the effectiveness of

Associations of genome-wide and regional autozygosity with 96 complex traits in old order Amish
BMC Genomics, 2023 Background: Autozygosity, the proportion of the genome that is homozygous by descent, has been associated with variation in multiple health-related traits impacting evolutionary fitness. Autozygosity (FROH) is typically measured from runs of homozygosity

Investigating inbreeding in the turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) genome
Poultry Science, 2021 : The detrimental effects of increased homozygosity due to inbreeding have prompted the development of methods to reduce inbreeding. The detection of runs of homozygosity (ROH), or contiguous stretches of homozygous marker genotypes, can be used to ...

BMC Genomics, 2018 Background Runs of homozygosity (ROH) are continuous homozygous segments of the DNA sequence. They have been applied to quantify individual autozygosity and used as a potential inbreeding measure in livestock species. The aim of the present study was (i)

Sensors, 2007 The design of fractional order-holds (FROH) of correcting gains β ∈ [ − 1 , 1 ](potentially and possibly including zero-order-holds, ZOH with β=0, and first-order-holds,FROH with β=1) is discussed related to achieving output deviations

Runs of homozygosity analysis and genomic inbreeding estimation in Sumba Ongole cattle (Bos indicus) using a BovineSNP50K BeadChip [PDF]
Veterinary WorldBackground and Aim: Runs of homozygosity (ROH) is a biocomputational technique for identifying homozygous regions in the genomics of livestock. This study aimed to determine the ROH in Sumba Ongole (SO) bulls (n = 48) using the BovineSNP50K BeadChip ...
