The inbreeding effective population number and the expected homozygosity for an X-linked locus.
Assuming random mating and discrete nonoverlapping generations, the inbreeding effective population number, N(i)e, is calculated for an X-linked locus. For large populations, the result agrees with the variance effective population number. As an application, the maintenance of genetic variability by the joint action of mutation and random drift is investigated. It is shown that, if every allele...
متن کاملgesp: A computer program for modelling genetic effective population size, inbreeding and divergence in substructured populations
The genetically effective population size (Ne ) is of key importance for quantifying rates of inbreeding and genetic drift and is often used in conservation management to set targets for genetic viability. The concept was developed for single, isolated populations and the mathematical means for analysing the expected Ne in complex, subdivided populations have previously not been available. We r...
متن کاملInbreeding effective population size and parentage analysis without parents.
An important use of genetic parentage analysis is the ability to directly calculate the number of offspring produced by each parent (k(i)) and hence effective population size, N(e). But what if parental genotypes are not available? In theory, given enough markers, it should be possible to reconstruct parental genotypes based entirely on a sample of progeny, and if so the vector of parental k(i)...
متن کاملExact Inbreeding Coefficients in Populations
A theory is given that allows inbreeding coefficients to be calculated exactly for populations with overlapping generations. Emphasis is placed on providing equations well suited for computer iteration. Both monoecious and dioecious populations are considered and family size is not restricted to being Poisson. One-locus and two-locus inbreeding coefficients are evaluated, although the reader ma...
متن کاملInbreeding and effective population size of Japanese Black cattle.
The objective of this research was to estimate the amount of inbreeding and effective population size of the Japanese Black breed using pedigree records from bulls and heifers registered between 1985 and 1997. Inbreeding was quantified by three F-statistics: actual inbreeding, inbreeding expected under random mating, and inbreeding due to population subdivision. During the period of 1985 to 199...
