Abstract excerpt
The estimation of the expected loss of genetic diversity and marginal diversities in a set of breeds within a defined future time horizon requires initial estimates of breed extinction probabilities. In this study, the extinction probabilities of 5 German dual-purpose cattle breeds were estimated by population viability analysis. Regression was used to estimate the infinitesimal mean and variance of the...
