The effects of selective breeding against scrapie susceptibility on the genetic variability of the Latxa Black-Faced sheep breed

Breeding sheep populations for scrapie resistance could result in a loss of genetic variability. In this study, the effect on genetic variability of selection for increasing the ARR allele frequency was estimated in the Latxa breed. Two sources of information were used, pedigree and genetic polymorp...
