Assessing the contribution of breeds to genetic diversity in conservation schemes.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

The quantitative assessment of genetic diversity within and between populations is important for decision making in genetic conservation plans. In this paper we define the genetic diversity of a set of populations, S, as the maximum genetic variance that can be obtained in a random mating population that is bred from the set of populations S. First we calculated the relative contribution of populations to a core...
