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.

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

Predictive Model and Software for Inbreeding-Purging Analysis of Pedigreed Populations

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
The inbreeding depression of fitness traits can be a major threat to the survival of populations experiencing inbreeding. However, its accurate prediction requires taking into account the genetic purging induced by inbreeding, which can be achieved using
