Inbreeding in Holstein Friesian Cattle Population in Turkey
Inbreeding is generally associated with a reduction in production and profitability. Therefore, it is essential that it be monitored and kept under control.

Inbreeding depression for kit survival at birth in a rabbit population under long-term selection
Background Accumulation of detrimental mutations in small populations leads to inbreeding depression of fitness traits and a higher frequency of genetic defects, thus increasing risk of extinction.

The effect of inbreeding rate on fitness, inbreeding depression and heterosis over a range of inbreeding coefficients [PDF]
AbstractUnderstanding the effects of inbreeding and genetic drift within populations and hybridization between genetically differentiated populations is important for many basic and applied questions in ecology and evolutionary biology. The magnitudes and even the directions of these effects can be influenced by various factors, especially by the ...

EFFECT OF INBREEDING ON MORTALITY OF CAPTIVE TIGER [PDF]
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 ...

On the expected relationship between inbreeding, fitness, and extinction
We assessed the expected relationship between the level and the cost of inbreeding, measured either in terms of fitness, inbreeding depression or probability of extinction. First, we show that the assumption of frequent, slightly deleterious mutations do

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,

Inferences About Inbreeding Depression Based on Changes of the Inbreeding Coefficient [PDF]
In a mixed-mating population, the fitness of selfed individuals, relative to outcrossed individuals, can be estimated from observed changes of the inbreeding coefficient F. In general, three measurements of F, or two measurements of F and one of the selfing rate, spanning two generations are needed.

A Spectral Theory for Wright’s Inbreeding Coefficients and Related Quantities [PDF]
Abstract Wright’s inbreeding coefficient, F ST , is a fundamental measure in population genetics. Assuming a predefined population subdivision, this statistic is classically used to evaluate population structure at a given genomic locus. With large numbers of loci,
