Crossbreeding might be a valid strategy to valorize local pig breeds. Crossbreeding should reduce homozygosity and, as a consequence, yield hybrid vigor for fitness and production traits.

The erosion of genetic diversity limits long-term genetic gain and impedes the sustainability of livestock production. In the South African (SA) dairy industry, the major commercial dairy breeds have been applying estimated breeding values (EBVs) and/or ...

Symphonic Gift: Wagner's Siegfried Idyll and the Hermeneutics of Sonata Form
ABSTRACT This article reimagines the place of programmatic interpretation within the New Formenlehre through the case study of Richard Wagner's Siegfried Idyll. To theorise the interaction between form and programme, I reconcile ‘separation’ and ‘conflation’ views – as represented by Julian Horton (2020) and Lawrence Kramer (2004a) – by deploying ...

Background Since the 1950s, the Norwegian–Swedish Coldblooded trotter (NSCT) has been intensively selected for harness racing performance. As a result, the racing performance of the NSCT has improved remarkably; however, this improved racing performance ...

Prior work in late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD) has resulted in discrepant findings as to whether recent consanguinity and outbred autozygosity are associated with LOAD risk.

ABSTRACT Understanding the genetic architecture of pathogen resistance and its relationship to host life‐history traits is a fundamental problem in evolutionary biology, yet the conditions under which resistance costs manifest as detectable trade‐offs remain poorly understood.

Limited Lifetime Costs of Inbreeding in a Large Wild Population of Superb Fairy‐Wrens
ABSTRACT Inbreeding depression can have major negative effects on both individual fitness and population performance. The impact of inbreeding depression in wild populations remains poorly understood, and our knowledge is primarily based on estimations in insular populations with limited dispersal, which has been predicted to enhance the capacity for ...
