On the extremum principle of natural with inbreeding

open access: yes, 1997
The extremum principle in the genetical theory of natural selection has been discussed when the population undergoes inbreeding at a constant value of the inbreeding coefficient with constant fitness of the three genotypes possible with two alleles at a ...

EFFECT OF INBREEDING ON MORTALITY OF CAPTIVE TIGER [PDF]

open access: yesExploratory Animal and Medical Research, 2017
A study was carried out on the captive tigers of Nandankanan zoo, Odisha, India, to conclude any deleterious effect of inbreeding on mortality. A pedigree path analysis of 342 tigers was done to estimate the inbreeding coefficient of each tiger from ...

Symposium review: The genomic architecture of inbreeding: How homozygosity affects health and performance

open access: yes, 2019
Inbreeding depression is a growing concern in livestock because it can detrimentally affect animal fitness, health, and production levels. Genomic information can be used to more effectively capture variance in Mendelian sampling, thereby enabling more ...

INBREEDING DEPRESSION FOR YIELD AND YIELD COMPONENTS IN Fragaria × ananassa Duch.

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2012
In case of plants, inbreeding depression can be measured through comparison of the fitness of selfed individuals with outcrossed individuals. In this paper the effect of repeated inbreeding on fruit yield and yield component of strawberries (Fragaria ...

A note on inbreeding in dairy cattle breeding

open access: yes, 2005
Starting from the study at the beginning of the East German "Heterosisfeldversuch", where PANICKE et al. (1975) considered the possibilities of a targeted use of inbreeding and heterotic effects, we show and discuss results of inbreeding studies in the ...

Inbreeding reduces reproductive fitness

open access: yes, 2017
The harmful impacts of inbreeding are generally greater in species that naturally outbreed compared to those in inbreeding species, greater in stressful than benign environments, greater for fitness than peripheral traits, and greater for total fitness ...

Evaluation of Inbreeding in the Slovak Simmental Breed and Its Effect on Length of Productive Life

open access: yesAnimals
This study aimed to estimate the average inbreeding coefficient in Slovak Simmental dairy cattle and evaluate the effect of inbreeding on the length of productive life. All pedigrees included 463,282 animals dating back to 1914.

Coefficients of relationship and inbreeding among Finnish Ayrshire and Holstein-Friesian

open access: yesAgricultural and Food Science, 2008
Pedigree data from national breeding value evaluations were used in calculation of the coefficient and rate of inbreeding, average coefficient and rate of relationship and generation intervals for the Finnish Ayrshire and Holstein-Friesian dairy cattle ...
