Assessment of inbreeding resulting from selection for scrapie resistance: a model for rare sheep breeds.

The Veterinary record - 1 Jan 2000

Brown C, Orford M, Tzamaloukas O, Mavrogenis A P, Miltiadou D

Abstract excerpt

Inbreeding in a small population of Chios sheep undergoing intense selection for the PrP gene was assessed 10 years after the beginning of a scrapie resistance selection programme. Inbreeding in this stock, already under selection for production traits, was analysed by using pedigree records cont...
