Relationships among estimates of inbreeding depression, dominance and additive variance for linear traits in Holsteins

Therefore, the objectives of this work were the following: (a) to study the effect of individual and maternal inbreeding on reproductive, growth and carcass traits in the

We expected that inbreeding based on long ROH (recent inbreeding) would be associated with stronger depres- sion effects than inbreeding based on short ROH (ancient inbreeding)..

However, it is very important to take into account that the selection of horses based on their high additive genetic values for one morphological trait could lead to

A 1% increase in inbreeding in the population with pedi- gree information only, or in the population with GRM_F resulted in a reduction in milk production traits of around 0.3% of

The aims of this study were to (1) present a modification of a previously developed model with addi- tive, dominance and inbreeding depression genetic effects for analysis of data

For nine yield, fertility and udder health traits, GREML models were run to estimate genome-wide inbreeding depression and estimate additive, dominance and ROH variance

For the same inbreeding coe fficient, populations can greatly differ in fitness according to the fol- lowing: (i) population size; larger populations show higher fitness (ii) the

Effects of partial selfing on the equilibrium genetic variance, mutation load and inbreeding depression under stabilizing selection..
