Coenzyme Q10 supplementation enhances HSP70 gene expression and preserves mitochondrial function in cryopreserved Peranakan Ettawa goat spermatozoa [PDF]
Veterinary WorldBackground and Aim: Inbreeding is a major concern in livestock breeding because it can reduce genetic diversity, impair fitness, and compromise long-term population sustainability.

Invited review: Inbreeding in the genomics era: Inbreeding, inbreeding depression, and management of genomic variability [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2017 Traditionally, pedigree-based relationship coefficients have been used to manage the inbreeding and degree of inbreeding depression that exists within a population. The widespread incorporation of genomic information in dairy cattle genetic evaluations allows for the opportunity to develop and implement methods to manage populations at the genomic ...

Inbreeding affected differently on observations distribution of a growth trait in Iranian Baluchi sheep [PDF]
Animal Bioscience, 2021 Objective Initial consequence of inbreeding is inbreeding depression which impairs the performance of growth, production, health, fertility and survival traits in different animal breeds and populations. The effect of inbreeding on economically important

Biolistic co-transformation of rice using gold nanoparticles [PDF]
Iran Agricultural Research, 2018 In order to produce transgenic rice lines lacking selectable marker gene, biolistic co-transformation technique using gold nanoparticles was adopted. In the first step, the efficiency of different sizes of gold particles was evaluated. The results showed

What happens after inbreeding avoidance? Inbreeding by rejected relatives and the inclusive fitness benefit of inbreeding avoidance. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Avoiding inbreeding, and therefore avoiding inbreeding depression in offspring fitness, is widely assumed to be adaptive in systems with biparental reproduction.

SELECTION AND INBREEDING DEPRESSION: EFFECTS OF INBREEDING RATE AND INBREEDING ENVIRONMENT [PDF]
Evolution, 2006 The magnitude of inbreeding depression in small populations may depend on the effectiveness with which natural selection purges deleterious recessive alleles from populations during inbreeding. The effectiveness of this purging process, however, may be influenced by the rate of inbreeding and the environment in which inbreeding occurs.

Aquaculture Reports, 2021 The occurrence of inbreeding over generations cannot be avoided in breeding practice because of limited effective population sizes, and inbreeding is expected to decrease the heritability within populations.

Evaluating the selection of improved Fars native fowl with the inbreeding assessment approach [PDF]
پژوهش های علوم دامی, 2022 Introduction: Performance of native fowl can be improved by making changes in feeding, rearing and health issues. Genetic improvement of these breeds can be achieved through the breeding programs such as selection, crossbreeding, or both.

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.
