Genome-wide estimates of coancestry, inbreeding and effective population size in the Spanish Holstein population.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Rodríguez-Ramilo Silvia Teresa, Fernández Jesús, Toro Miguel Angel, Hernández Delfino, Villanueva Beatriz

Abstract excerpt

Estimates of effective population size in the Holstein cattle breed have usually been low despite the large number of animals that constitute this breed. Effective population size is inversely related to the rates at which coancestry and inbreeding increase and these rates have been high as a consequence of intense and accurate selection. Traditionally, coancestry and inbreeding coefficients have been calculated...
