Genomic analysis of the inbreeding load for body weight, carcass and reproductive traits in the Rubia Gallega beef cattle population [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution
Background Inbreeding, resulting from mating between relatives, leads to inbreeding depression, which can be traced back to hidden ancestral inbreeding loads.

Invited review: Inbreeding in the genomics era: Inbreeding, inbreeding depression, and management of genomic variability [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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]

open access: yesAnimal 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

What happens after inbreeding avoidance? Inbreeding by rejected relatives and the inclusive fitness benefit of inbreeding avoidance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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]

open access: yesEvolution, 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.

Effect of inbreeding on performance and genetic parameters of growth and survival traits in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas at larval stage

open access: yesAquaculture 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.

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

open access: yesG3: 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.

Trends in genetic diversity and the effect of inbreeding in American Angus cattle under genomic selection

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2021
Background While the adoption of genomic evaluations in livestock has increased genetic gain rates, its effects on genetic diversity and accumulation of inbreeding have raised concerns in cattle populations.

Evaluating the selection of improved Fars native fowl with the inbreeding assessment approach [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهش 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.

Genetic inbreeding depression load for morphological traits and defects in the Pura Raza Española horse

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2020
Background Inbreeding is caused by mating between related individuals and is associated with reduced fitness and performance (inbreeding depression). Several studies have detected heterogeneity in inbreeding depression among founder individuals. Recently,
