Restricting inbreeding while maintaining selection response for weight gain in Mus musculus
Restricting inbreeding while maintaining selection response for weight gain in Mus musculus is a scholarly work by Juan Pablo Gutiérrez, Miguel Angel Toro, and Noelia Ibáñez-Escriche, published in 2011 in ''Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics''. The main subjects of the publication include Genomic selection, house mouse, population, Quantitative genetics, inbreeding, weight gain, biology, statistics, mating system, mating, selection (genetic algorithm), genetics, and evolutionary ecology. As consequence, lines B and C (weighted selection and minimum coancestry) showed a lower value of deterioration of fitness traits (the intrauterine mortality and the mortality at birth) than line A (random mating).
