Inbreeding Calculated with Runs of Homozygosity Suggests Chromosome-Specific Inbreeding Depression Regions in Line 1 Hereford
The goal of this study was to evaluate inbreeding in a closed beef cattle population and assess phenotype prediction accuracy using inbreeding information. Effects of inbreeding on average daily gain phenotype in the Line 1 Hereford cattle population were assessed in this study. Genomic data were us...
