Original article Computing inbreeding coefficients quickly B Tier * University of New England, Animal Genetics and Breeding Unit Arnaidade, NSW, Australia (Received 13 June 1988; accepted 12 September 1990) Summary - An algorithm for computing inbreeding coefficients (F) for all animals of large populations is described. The technique relies on the subset of the numerator relationship matrix (A) required to compute its diagonal, which contains F. A simple example illustrates that this subset is a very small part of A. inbreeding coefficients / fast algorithm Résumé - Calcul rapide des coefficients de consanguinité. On présente un algorithme pour calculer rapidement les coefficients de consanguinité de tous les anirrcaux, dans une grande population. La méthode fait seulement intervenir le sous-ensemble de la matrice des coefficients de parenté qui est nécessaire au calcul de sa diagonale, qui contient les coefficients de consanguinité. Un exemple simple illustre que ce sous-ensemble n’est qu’une petite partie de la matrice des coefficients de parenté. L’algorithme est précisé sous la forme d’un codage symbolique. coefficients de consanguinité/ calcul rapide INTRODUCTION Wright’s (1922) coefficient of inbreeding (F) describes the probability that 2 alleles at any locus are identical by descent. Inbred offspring result from mating two animals which have one (ormore) common ancestors. Breeders of livestock perceive inbreeding as being deleterious and consequently try to avoid mating close relatives. The relationship between prospective mates can be computed to determine the degree of inbreeding of the resulting offspring fr
