Maintaining genetic diversity using molecular coancestry: the effect of marker density and effective population size.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 2 Oct 2013

Gómez-Romano Fernando, Villanueva Beatriz, de Cara María Angeles Rodríguez, Fernández Jesús

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The most efficient method to maintain genetic diversity in populations under conservation programmes is to optimize, for each potential parent, the number of offspring left to the next generation by minimizing the global coancestry. Coancestry is usually calculated from genealogical data but molecular markers can be used to replace genealogical coancestry with molecular coancestry. Recent studies...
