Genomic inbreeding coefficients using imputed genotypes: assessing differences among SNP panels in Holstein-Friesian dairy cows

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of imputation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) on the estimation of genomic inbreeding coefficients. Imputed genotypes of 68,127 Italian Holstein dairy cows were analyzed. Cows were initially genotyped with two high density (HD) SNP panels, namely the Illumina Infinium BovineHD BeadChip ...

Estimate of inbreeding depression on growth and reproductive traits in a Large White pig population

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2022
With the broad application of genomic information, SNP-based measures of estimating inbreeding have been widely used in animal breeding, especially based on runs of homozygosity.

Approaches to estimating inbreeding coefficients in clinical isolates of Plasmodium falciparum from genomic sequence data [PDF]

Malaria Journal, 2015
AbstractThe advent of whole-genome sequencing has generated increased interest in modeling the structure of strain mixture within clinicial infections ofPlasmodium falciparum(Pf). The life cycle of the parasite implies that the mixture of multiple strains within an infected individual is related to the out-crossing rate across populations, making ...

Inbreeding-Driven Innate Behavioral Changes in Drosophila melanogaster

Biology, 2023
Drosophila melanogaster has long been used to demonstrate the effect of inbreeding, particularly in relation to reproductive fitness and stress tolerance. In comparison, less attention has been given to exploring the influence of inbreeding on the innate

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.

Comparative analysis of inbreeding parameters and runs of homozygosity islands in 2 Italian autochthonous cattle breeds mainly raised in the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese production region

Journal of Dairy Science, 2022
: Reggiana and Modenese are autochthonous cattle breeds, reared in the North of Italy, that can be mainly distinguished for their standard coat color (Reggiana is red, whereas Modenese is white with some pale gray shades).

A method for genotyping elite breeding stocks of leaf chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) by assaying mapped microsatellite marker loci [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Leaf chicory (Cichorium intybus subsp. intybus var. foliosum L.) is a diploid plant species (2n = 18) of the Asteraceae family. The term "chicory" specifies at least two types of cultivated plants: a leafy vegetable, which is highly ...

Accounting for cryptic population substructure enhances detection of inbreeding depression with genomic inbreeding coefficients: an example from a critically endangered marsupial

Molecular Ecology, 2020
AbstractCharacterizing inbreeding depression in wildlife populations can be critical to their conservation. Coefficients of individual inbreeding can be estimated from genome‐wide marker data. The degree to which sensitivity of inbreeding coefficients to population genetic substructure alters estimates of inbreeding depression in wild populations is ...
