Significant familial differences in the frequency of abortion and Toxoplasma gondii infection within a flock of Charollais sheep [PDF]
, 2005 A study was carried out to investigate the frequencies of abortion and congenital Toxoplasma gondii infection within 27 families (765 individuals) of a pedigree Charollais sheep flock maintained on a working farm in Worcestershire, UK, since 1992 ...

Efficient pedigree recording for fast population genetics simulation
bioRxiv, 2018 In this paper we describe how to efficiently record the entire genetic history of a population in forwards-time, individual-based population genetics simulations with arbitrary breeding models, population structure and demography.

Parentage Atlas of Italian Grapevine Varieties as Inferred From SNP Genotyping
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 The Italian grape germplasm is characterized by a high level of richness in terms of varieties number, with nearly 600 wine grape varieties listed in the Italian National Register of Grapevine Varieties and with a plethora of autochthonous grapes. In the

Population Structure and Cryptic Relatedness in Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
, 2009 We review the problem of confounding in genetic association studies, which arises principally because of population structure and cryptic relatedness. Many treatments of the problem consider only a simple ``island'' model of population structure. We take

Genetic Variability in the Italian Heavy Draught Horse from Pedigree Data and Genomic Information
Animals, 2020 This study aimed to investigate the genetic diversity in the Italian Heavy Horse Breed from pedigree and genomic data. Pedigree information for 64,917 individuals were used to assess inbreeding level, effective population size (Ne), and effective numbers
