Inbreeding and the Gene Pool

Journal of Dairy Science, 1984
The trend in the artificial insemination industry in recent years has been to sample larger numbers of sons sired by the most popular bulls. This trend has caused concern in the dairy industry regarding inbreeding and the gene pool. The known detrimental effects of inbreeding on economically important traits are one reason for this concern, and these ...

RNA Isolation from Girolando (Bos taurus × Bos indicus) Sperm in Fresh and Cryopreserved Semen for RNA-Seq Applications

Ruminants
The highly compact chromatin and naturally fragmented RNA content of bovine sperm make it difficult to obtain sufficient total RNA for transcriptome sequencing. Bovine sperm studies have mostly adapted the somatic-cell protocol and used generic kits.

Signals of Pig Ancestry in Wild Boar, Sus scrofa, from Eastern Austria: Current Hybridisation or Incomplete Gene Pool Differentiation and Historical Introgressions?

Diversity, 2023
In wild boar, Sus scrofa, from Europe, domestic pig-typical ancestry is traced at varying levels. We hypothesised wild boar with pig-typical gene pool characteristics, i.e., “introgression”, congregate more in peri-urban habitats, because of less shyness
