Optimizing genetic diversity in Australian Holsteins and Jerseys: A comparative analysis of whole-genome and regional inbreeding depression effects
ABSTRACT: Homozygosity, which can arise from several genetic mechanisms including inbreeding, is frequently observed in the offspring of related parents. This inbreeding can lead to a reduced performance, owing to a phenomenon known as inbreeding depression. This study assessed inbreeding depression...
