Abstract excerpt
The effectiveness of low cost breeding scheme designs for small aquaculture breeding programmes were assessed for their ability to achieve genetic gain while managing inbreeding using stochastic simulation. Individuals with trait data were simulated over 15 generations with selection on a single trait. Combinations of selection methods, mating strategies and genetic evaluation options were evaluated with and...
