For the period 1875-1975 an isonymic analysis was made based on 41,696 marriages celebrated in three valleys (Tormes, Alberche and Tietar) from Gredos (Spain). Total inbreeding (Ft) was lower in the Tietar valley (0.0103- 0.0136), followed by the Tormes (0.0125-0.0255) and the Alberche (0.0153-0.0200). In the latter, random inbreeding (Fr) surpassed non random (Fn). Correlation coefficients wer...

a pedigree file consisting of 5860 individuals, 167 sires and 1582 dams collected at makooei sheep breeding station (msbs) during a period of 24 years (1990 to 2013) was used to calculate the inbreeding coefficients to reveal any probable effects of inbreeding (f) on the studied traits. the studied traits were classified to the five main groups including body weight, kleiber ratio, body measure...

pedigree information of 3972 holstein cows and bulls, from 1961 to 2008, was used to calculate inbreeding coefficients and their effects on production traits and subclinical mastitis of dairy farm cows inazerbaijan province,iran. inbreeding was included in a linear mixed model as a class variable. data were analyzed using the proc mixed of sas by mivque method. results showed that average inbre...

PREMISE Inbreeding depression, or the reduction in fitness of progeny with related parents, has potential to adversely affect long-term viability both wild and captive plant populations. Silphium integrifolium, a prairie native central United States, been identified as candidate for domestication perennial oilseed crop. Little is known about inbreeding depression this species, but it expected b...

Hypothesis: Inbreeding depression is manifest in lower sperm production. Organism: Freshwater crustaceans (clam shrimp – Eulimnadia texana), from the southwestern United States, which have high levels of inbreeding. Methods: Comparisons of semi-thin sections of the male gonad among selfed and outcrossed siblings from four families. Results: There was a twofold reduction in sperm production in i...
