The effect of genomic information on optimal contribution selection in livestock breeding programs [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Long-term benefits in animal breeding programs require that increases in genetic merit be balanced with the need to maintain diversity (lost due to inbreeding). This can be achieved by using optimal contribution selection. The availability of

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 Nucleus-based breeding programs are characterized by intense selection that results in high genetic gain, which inevitably means reduction of genetic variation in the breeding population. Therefore, genetic variation in such breeding systems is typically

Genetic selection strategies–population genetics
Poultry Science, 1997 This paper provides an overview of the association between population genetics and selection strategies in poultry. Relationships between artificial and natural selection and among causes contributing to limits to artificial selection are discussed.

Genetic Selection and Conservation of Genetic Diversity* [PDF]
Reproduction in Domestic Animals, 2012 ContentsFor 100s of years, livestock producers have employed various types of selection to alter livestock populations. Current selection strategies are little different, except our technologies for selection have become more powerful. Genetic resources at the breed level have been in and out of favour over time.

Phenotypic robustness can increase phenotypic variability after non-genetic perturbations in gene regulatory circuits [PDF]
, 2010 Non-genetic perturbations, such as environmental change or developmental noise, can induce novel phenotypes. If an induced phenotype confers a fitness advantage, selection may promote its genetic stabilization. Non-genetic perturbations can thus initiate

Investigating the bias resulted from ignoring bulmer effect on the genetic and economic output in progeny test and genomic selection program [PDF]
Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2017 This study aims to investigate the degree of bias resulted from ignoring Bulmer effect during the estimation of genetic and economic progress in progeny test and genomic selection programs.

GENETIC SELECTION | Evaluation and Methods [PDF]
, 2002 The ultimate goal of animal selection is to create a new generation of animals that are superior to the current population. Superior is interpreted broadly to include functionality of animals, cost reduction of production, consumer perception, quality of products, and reduced environmental impact.

The Adaptive Significance of Natural Genetic Variation in the DNA Damage Response of Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
, 2016 Despite decades of work, our understanding of the distribution of fitness effects of segregating genetic variants in natural populations remains largely incomplete. One form of selection that can maintain genetic variation is spatially varying selection,
