The aim of this note is to describe the program endog (v. 3.0). The program handles
pedigree information to conduct several demographic and genetic analyses including:(a) the …

Computation of inbreeding rate (ΔF) must consider that inbreeding is delayed with one
generation with respect to the idealized population when addressed using individual …

Background Effective population sizes of 140 populations (including 60 dog breeds, 40
sheep breeds, 20 cattle breeds and 20 horse breeds) were computed using pedigree …

The aim of this work is to highlight the need of monitoring small populations to conserve their
genetic variability by using a set of parameters to characterize both the structure of …

We present here a simple approach to obtain reliable estimates of the effective population
size in real world populations via the computation of the increase in inbreeding for each …

Inbreeding depression on female fertility and calving ease in Spanish dairy cattle was
studied by the traditional inbreeding coefficient (F) and an alternative measurement …

The objective of this study was to determine the inbreeding levels and to analyze the
pedigree of Irish purebred populations of Charolais, Limousin, Hereford, Angus, and …

We introduce a simple method to estimate effective population size from increase in
coancestry (Δcjk) for all pairs of individuals j and k in a reference subpopulation. An increase …

The studbook of the Andalusian horse comprising a total of 75,389 individuals (6318 of them
classified as Carthusians) was analysed in order to ascertain the genetic history of the breed …

The objective of this study was to test the performance of a recently proposed methodology
for the estimation of realized effective size (Ne) based on individual increase in inbreeding …
