Mating system of Datura inoxia: association between selfing rates and herkogamy within populations [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Plant mating system determines, to a great extent, the demographic and genetic properties of populations, hence their potential for adaptive evolution. Variation in plant mating system has been documented between phylogenetically related species as well ...

Inbreeding Depression and Purging for Meat Performance Traits in German Sheep Breeds
Animals, 2023 This study provides estimates on genetic parameters, inbreeding depression and purging for meat performance measures from 25 German sheep breeds. All German meat, merino sheep breeds and breeds of other breeding directions with a sufficient number of ...

Calculation and Experimental Study on Purging Resistance of the Spiral Tube Heat Exchanger
Zhongguo dianli, 2020 For the spiral tube heat exchanger with smaller diameter and more complex structure, using the conventional method is not an effective way to clean the inside of the tubes. In this paper, regarding the difficulties in cleaning the steam generator of high-

Inbreeding depression for kit survival at birth in a rabbit population under long-term selection
Genetics Selection Evolution, 2020 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.

Allele frequency divergence reveals ubiquitous influence of positive selection in Drosophila.
PLoS Genetics, 2021 Resolving the role of natural selection is a basic objective of evolutionary biology. It is generally difficult to detect the influence of selection because ubiquitous non-selective stochastic change in allele frequencies (genetic drift) degrades ...

Predictive Model and Software for Inbreeding-Purging Analysis of Pedigreed Populations
G3: 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
