Average inbreeding and genetic gain in simulated populations of dual-purpose cattle under different methods of selection.

Average inbreeding and genetic gain in simulated populations of dual-purpose cattle under different methods of selection.

The development of breeding programs that meet two goals (dairy and beef) can be important for improving the dual-purpose breeds, thus contributing to greater profitability and satisfaction of dual-purpose cattle producers. This study aimed to evaluate the variation of average inbreeding and genetic gain in simulated dual-purpose populations using different selection methods.
