The Drosophila genome nexus: a population genomic resource of 623 Drosophila melanogaster genomes, including 197 from a single ancestral range population. [PDF]

, 2015
Hundreds of wild-derived Drosophila melanogaster genomes have been published, but rigorous comparisons across data sets are precluded by differences in alignment methodology.

Genomic consequences of isolation and inbreeding in an island dingo population

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2023
ABSTRACTDingoes come from an ancient canid lineage that originated in East Asia around 8000-11,000 years BP. As Australia’s largest terrestrial predator, dingoes play an important ecological role. A small, protected population exists on a world heritage listed offshore island, K’gari (formerly Fraser Island).

Changes in genetic trends in US dairy cattle since the implementation of genomic selection

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Genomic selection increases accuracy and decreases generation interval, accelerating genetic changes in populations. Assumptions of genetic improvement must be addressed to quantify the magnitude and direction of change.

Genomic population structure and inbreeding history of Lake Superior caribou

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
AbstractCaribou (Rangifer tarandus) have experienced dramatic declines in both range and population size across Canada over the past century. Boreal caribou (R. t. caribou), 1 of the 12 Designatable Units, has lost approximately half of its historic range in the last 150 years, particularly along the southern edge of its distribution.

Inbreeding depression for producer-recorded udder, metabolic, and reproductive diseases in US dairy cattle

Journal of Dairy Science
: This study leveraged a growing dataset of producer-recorded phenotypes for mastitis, reproductive diseases (metritis and retained placenta), and metabolic diseases (ketosis, milk fever, and displaced abomasum) to investigate the potential presence of ...

Genetic Variability in the Italian Heavy Draught Horse from Pedigree Data and Genomic Information

Animals, 2020
This study aimed to investigate the genetic diversity in the Italian Heavy Horse Breed from pedigree and genomic data. Pedigree information for 64,917 individuals were used to assess inbreeding level, effective population size (Ne), and effective numbers

Unraveling inbreeding patterns and selection signals in Alpine Grey cattle

Animal
Inbreeding plays a crucial role in livestock breeding, influencing genetic diversity and phenotypic traits. Genomic data have helped address limitations posed by incomplete pedigrees, providing deeper insights into breed genetic diversity.

Efficient Breeding by Genomic Mating [PDF]

, 2016
In this article, we propose an approach to breeding which focuses on mating instead of truncation selection, our method uses genome-wide marker information in a similar fashion to genomic selection so we refer it to as genomic mating.

Inbreeding, self-fertilization, lethal genes and genomic coalescence [PDF]

Heredity, 1992
A deterministic computer model was used to investigate the elevation in frequency of coalesced genomic heterozygotes, i.e. heterozygotes with reduced numbers of independently assorting supergenic units at meiosis, in inbred populations in which every supergenic unit carried a recessive lethal gene.

Genetic Diversity, Adaptation, Wild Introgression, and Coat Color Mutation of Golden Yak

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity, adaptation, wild introgression, and coat color mutation of golden yak from two populations on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau. ABSTRACT The golden yak lives on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau with a golden coat and adapts to high altitudes and strong ultraviolet environment. The golden coat is a prominent phenotype in many domesticated species,
