A comparison of approaches to estimate the inbreeding coefficient and pairwise relatedness using genomic and pedigree data in a sheep population. [PDF]
Genome-wide SNP data provide a powerful tool to estimate pairwise relatedness among individuals and individual inbreeding coefficient. The aim of this study was to compare methods for estimating the two parameters in a Finnsheep population based on ...

Abstract Background Pedigree-based inbreeding coefficients have been generally included in statistical models for genetic evaluation of Japanese Black cattle. The use of genomic data is expected to provide precise assessment of inbreeding level and depression.

Comparing Genomic and Pedigree Inbreeding Coefficients in the Slovenian Lipizzan Horse as a Case Study for Small Closed Populations. [PDF]
In small, closed populations such as the Lipizzan horse, maintaining genetic diversity while limiting inbreeding is a key challenge in conservation breeding. The Lipizzan is an indigenous Slovenian breed with a small population and restricted gene flow from other subpopulations.

Estimation of the Inbreeding Coefficient through Use of Genomic Data [PDF]
Many linkage studies are performed in inbred populations, either small isolated populations or large populations with a long tradition of marriages between relatives. In such populations, there exist very complex genealogies with unknown loops. Therefore, the true inbreeding coefficient of an individual is often unknown.

Background Estimating inbreeding, which is omnipresent and inevitable in livestock populations, is a primary goal for management and animal breeding especially for those interested in mitigating the negative consequences of inbreeding.

Investigating inbreeding in the turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) genome
: 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 ...

Identification of genome diversity in different breeds of Iranian native sheep using the whole genome sequencing method [PDF]
Purpose: Iran is considered to be one of the oldest centers of domestication and breeding of livestock and poultry species in the world. Currently, different ecotypes of indigenous sheep are kept in different geographical regions of the country, which ...

The objective of this study was to estimate inbreeding coefficients in Holstein dairy cattle using imputed SNPs data. A data set of 95,540 Italian Holstein dairy cows from the routine genomic evaluations of the Italian National Association of Holstein, Brown, and Jersey Breeders were analyzed, with 84,445 imputed SNP. Ten widely used genomic inbreeding

Population-Genetic Influences on Genomic Estimates of the Inbreeding Coefficient: A Global Perspective [PDF]
Culturally driven marital practices provide a key instance of an interaction between social and genetic processes in shaping patterns of human genetic variation, producing, for example, increased identity by descent through consanguineous marriage. A commonly used measure to quantify identity by descent in an individual is the inbreeding coefficient, a
