BACKGROUND: Pedigree-based inbreeding coefficients have been generally included in statistical models for genetic evaluation of Japanese Black cattle. The use of genomic data is expected to provide precise assessment of inbreeding level and depression. Recently, many measures have been used for genome-based inbreeding coefficients; however, with no consensus on which is the most appropriate. Therefore, we...
