The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1017-1028, July 2026.
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...

Incorporating Population Genomic Perspectives Into Kelp Conservation and Aquaculture in the Pacific Northwest

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent kelp forest declines and growth in the kelp aquaculture industry have fueled increasing interest in ecological and evolutionary research on kelp forests, including kelp population genomics. Although many kelp management activities have inherent genetic and evolutionary implications, kelp management in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) of ...

Management of genomic inbreeding in breeding schemes

, 2019
Det overordna målet for denne avhandlinga var å utforska strategiar som forvaltar genetisk variasjon på genomnivå i vår tid når effektive genomiske seleksjonsmetodar er tilgjengelege. I Paper 1 blir effekten av bruk av ulike genomiske slektskapsmatriser på genetisk framgang ved same sanne innavlsrate samanlikna.

Multidisciplinary Evaluation of a 10‐Year Restoration Program for Two Endangered Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Populations

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Supportive breeding programs are widely implemented to counteract demographic collapse in threatened populations. Their long‐term success, however, depends on maintaining genetic diversity while ensuring that released individuals contribute effectively to wild populations.

Genomic Analysis of Inbreeding Depression on Productive Traits in Rubia Galega Beef Cattle Breed

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 508-523, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In autochthonous livestock breeds with small populations, such as the Rubia Galega from Galicia (Spain), mating between relatives is common and can lead to inbreeding depression. Genomic inbreeding coefficients were estimated for 4984 animals using ~63,000 SNPs to assess inbreeding depression in four key traits: age at first calving (AFC) with

Genetic Parameters of Methane Emission, Feed Efficiency, Feeding Behaviour, and Growth Traits in Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 496-507, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change has intensified the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane (CH4) from enteric fermentation. Genetic selection has emerged as a promising mitigation strategy; however, studies on Bos taurus indicus, especially Nellore cattle, remain limited.

Use of Cluster Analysis for Identifying Metafounders

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 535-559, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In the metafounder approach, the relationship matrix of metafounders, Γ is used to transfer information on relationships between pedigree founders into the numerator relationship matrix A, creating matrix AΓ. Commonly metafounders are defined based on the available information of the animal (e.g., country, sex, breed) similar to unknown parent

Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 602-612, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.
