Abstract

MiniInbred predicts inbreeding levels in the next generation by identifying matings that yield the lowest inbreeding level in the offspring. The inbreeding coefficients resulting from all potential matings of the current breeding animals (generation 1) are calculated, and the potential matings among the current breeding animals that yield the lowest inbreeding level are identified. The program also predicts the lowest inbreeding available in the third generation. In this case, the hypothetical offspring (generation 2) of the current breeding animals are treated as 'parents', and the inbreeding coefficients resulting from all potential matings between the hypothetical 'parents' are calculated, and the potential matins among the hypothetical 'parents' that minimize inbreeding are identified.
