Inbreeding effective population size and parentage analysis without parents.
An important use of genetic parentage analysis is the ability to directly calculate the number of offspring produced by each parent (k(i)) and hence effective population size, N(e). But what if parental genotypes are not available? In theory, given enough markers, it should be possible to reconstruct parental genotypes based entirely on a sample of progeny, and if so the vector of parental k(i)...
متن کاملInbreeding and effective population size of Japanese Black cattle.
The objective of this research was to estimate the amount of inbreeding and effective population size of the Japanese Black breed using pedigree records from bulls and heifers registered between 1985 and 1997. Inbreeding was quantified by three F-statistics: actual inbreeding, inbreeding expected under random mating, and inbreeding due to population subdivision. During the period of 1985 to 199...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Estimates of Coancestry, Inbreeding and Effective Population Size in the Spanish Holstein Population
Estimates of effective population size in the Holstein cattle breed have usually been low despite the large number of animals that constitute this breed. Effective population size is inversely related to the rates at which coancestry and inbreeding increase and these rates have been high as a consequence of intense and accurate selection. Traditionally, coancestry and inbreeding coefficients ha...
متن کاملEstimating virus effective population size and selection without neutral markers
By combining high-throughput sequencing (HTS) with experimental evolution, we can observe the within-host dynamics of pathogen variants of biomedical or ecological interest. We studied the evolutionary dynamics of five variants of Potato virus Y (PVY) in 15 doubled-haploid lines of pepper. All plants were inoculated with the same mixture of virus variants and variant frequencies were determined...
متن کاملAlternative reproductive tactics increase effective population size and decrease inbreeding in wild Atlantic salmon
While nonanadromous males (stream-resident and/or mature male parr) contribute to reproduction in anadromous salmonids, little is known about their impacts on key population genetic parameters. Here, we evaluated the contribution of Atlantic salmon mature male parr to the effective number of breeders (Nb) using both demographic (variance in reproductive success) and genetic (linkage disequilibr...
