Calculate inbreeding coefficient
The inbreeding coefficient is calculated with Wright's equation
Fx=Sum[(½)n1+n2+1(1+Fa)]
The inbreeding coefficient is the probabillity that for any given gene both alleles come from the same ancestor.
IC of 0-10 is low
IC of 10-20 is medium
IC 20+ is high
There is no direct relation between the genetic health and the IC.
In other words an animal with a low IC is not per definition genetically healthier then an animal with a high IC.
Planned Mating
1- Go to the pedigree of one of the proposed parents.
2- Enter the name of part of the name of the other proposed parent in the textfield.
3- Press the "Planned mating" button and pick the other proposed parent.
Wildcards * and ? can be used in the textfield.
The radio buttons "Starts with", "Ends with" and "Includes" control which part of the names are compared.
Find ancestor
1- Enter the name of part of the name of the ancestor to find in the textfield.
2- Press the "Find Ancestor" button and pick the ancestor to find.
Wildcards * and ? can be used in the textfield.
The radio buttons "Starts with", "Ends with" and "Includes" control which part of the names are compared.
