To evaluate the Weitzman approach for assessing alternative conservation strategies for breed ( population ) diversity, we used genetic distance measures between 49 African cattle breeds divided into two groups of 26 taurine ( Bos taurus ) and sanga ( Bos taurus×Bos indicus ) breeds and 23 zebu ...

Methods for biodiversity conservation are reported and applied to 49 African cattle breeds (26 taurine/sanga and 23 zebu/zenga (ZZ) breeds). It was estimated that about half of the breeds and half of today’s genetic diversity between breeds would be lost within 50 years. Based on a survey and a l...

Effective population size is an important parameter for the assessment of genetic diversity within a livestock population and its development over time. If pedigree information is not available, linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis might offer an alternative perspective for the estimation of effe...
