  • Cousin Marriage & Inbreeding Depression
    Evidence of Inbreeding Depression: Saudi Arabia Saudi Intermarriages Have Genetic Costs [Important note from Raymond Hames (your instructor). Cousin marriage in the United States is not as risky compared to cousin marriage in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere where there is a long history of repeated inter-marriage between close kin. Ordinary cousins without a history previous intermarriage are related to one another by 0.0125. However, in societies with a long history of intermarriage, relatedness is much higher. For US marriages a study published in The Journal of Genetic Counseling in 2002 said that the risk of serious genetic defects like spina bifida and cystic fibrosis in the children of first cousins indeed exists but that it is rather small, 1.7 to 2.8 percentage points higher than for children of unrelated parents, who face a 3 to 4 percent risk — or about the equivalent of that in children of women giving birth in their early 40s. The study also said the risk of mortality for children of first cousins was 4.4 percentage points higher.] By Howard Schneider Washington Post Foreign Service Sunday, January 16, 2000; Page A01 RIYADH, Saudi Arabia-In the centuries that this country's tribes have scratched a life from the Arabian Peninsula, the rule of thumb for choosing a marriage partner has been simple: Keep it in the family, a cousin if possible, or at least a tribal kin who could help conserve resources and contribute to the clan's support and defense. But just as that method of matchmaking served a purpose over the generations, providing insurance against a social or financial mismatch, so has it exacted a cost--the spread of genetic disease.

Issue: 88.4 Running header: Human Inbreeding for the Whole of Britain Key words: mating relationships, consanguineous marriages, inbreeding coefficient, logistic function, historic Britain. Abstract There have been a number of previous estimates of human inbreeding for Britons of British descent in Britain; each generally for different social classes, geographical regions, and/or time periods. In this study an attempt was made to collect all relevant published studies and to combine the results of these disparate studies into an integrated whole for all of Britain. This was achieved by combining weighted means of the percentage of consanguineous marriages (f%) reported in these earlier studies: weighted according to the number of records each author examined, the proportion of social classes or geographical regions covered by the records, and the ‘merit’ of their individual research methodologies.

  • Inbreeding Depression in Two Populations of Arenaria Uni¯Ora (Caryophyllaceae) with Contrasting Mating Systems
    Heredity 86 (2001) 184±194 Received 16 November 1999, accepted 17 October 2000 Inbreeding depression in two populations of Arenaria uni¯ora (Caryophyllaceae) with contrasting mating systems LILA FISHMAN Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544 U.S.A. I used parallel family-structured crossing designs to investigate the relative performance of self and outcross progeny in sel®ng and predominantly outcrossing populations of the annual plant Arenaria uni¯ora. The selfer population experienced much lower inbreeding depression (d 0.05 0.02 SE) than the outcrossers (d 0.19 0.02 SE). The negative association between genetic load and sel®ng rate suggests that purgable partially recessive alleles are the primary source of inbreeding depression, as does its late expression in both populations. Inbreeding depression in the selfer population, which naturally consists of highly inbred lines, was used to calculate the mean dominance (h 0.33) and incidence rate (U 0.30) of deleterious mutations. In the outcrosser population, signi®cant variation among individuals in the expression of inbreeding depression may re¯ect lineage-speci®c dierences in inbreeding history or, more probably, random variation in mutational load. The low (0.5) inbreeding depression of outcrossers suggests that the maintenance of a mixed mating system in some A. uni¯ora populations and the evolution of nearly cleistogamous self-pollination in others may re¯ect local pollinator-mediated selection for sel®ng rather than the constant 3:2 genetic advantage invoked by many models. Keywords: Arenaria uni¯ora, genetic load, inbreeding depression, mating system, sel®ng.

  • COI -- Coefficient of Inbreeding
    COI Coefficient of Inbreeding By Lisa Dubé Forman The science of canine husbandry can sometimes be overwhelming to many fanciers, both rookies and veterans alike. There are many technical considerations Dog Genes Decoded that factor into breeding that can confound the ordinary person. These include, the coefficient of inbreeding (COI), coefficient of relationship (COR), ancestor loss coefficient (AVK), pedigree collapse, inbreeding depression, formula approach, genetic diversity, genetic drift, and genetic loads. By and large, a fancier plans a litter with much anticipation and excitement, for perhaps, waiting in the wings, is the next sublime specimen — one slated for greatness in the wolfhound dog world. A method of approach that on the outset may sound glib, but it really is just an honest assessment as one of the compelling reasons why breeders create is to perfect, enhance and build on a breed. The better part do not wish to worsen or diminish the breed. The average breeder must understand these aforementioned technical considerations, yet, regrettably, they do not. Modern day breeding programs are based on regular appearances of significant names in pedigrees which itself is based on an ideological nineteenth-century attitude that still has a firm foothold in mainstream practices of canine husbandry. Breeders should not proceed with rudimentary information that originated from social attitudes instead of science. Even more, there is the impracticable method of basing decisions on only five generation horizontal pedigrees as sufficient evidence of the coefficient of inbreeding (COI). !1 COI Coefficient of Inbreeding By Lisa Dubé Forman Let us get right to it and begin with a few quick, simple definitions.

  • Genetic Inbreeding Depression Load for Morphological Traits and Defects in the Pura Raza Española Horse Julia Poyato‑Bonilla1† , Davinia I

Genet Sel Evol (2020) 52:62 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12711‑020‑00582‑2 Genetics Selection Evolution RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Genetic inbreeding depression load for morphological traits and defects in the Pura Raza Española horse Julia Poyato‑Bonilla1† , Davinia I. Perdomo‑González1*† , María J. Sánchez‑Guerrero1 , Luis Varona2 , Antonio Molina3 , Joaquim Casellas4 and Mercedes Valera1 Abstract Background: Inbreeding is caused by mating between related individuals and is associated with reduced ftness and performance (inbreeding depression). Several studies have detected heterogeneity in inbreeding depression among founder individuals. Recently, a procedure was developed to predict hidden inbreeding depression load that is associ‑ ated with founders using the Mendelian sampling of non‑founders. The objectives of this study were to: (1) analyse the population structure and general inbreeding, and (2) test this recent approach for predicting hidden inbreeding depression load for four morphological traits and two morphology defects in the Pura Raza Española (PRE) horse breed. Results: The regression coefcients that were calculated between trait performances and inbreeding coefcients demonstrated the existence of inbreeding depression. In total, 58,772,533 partial inbreeding coefcients (Fij) were esti‑ mated for the whole PRE population (328,706 horses). We selected the descendants of horses with a Fij 6.25% that contributed to at least four ofspring and for which morphological traits were measured for the subsequent≥ analysis of inbreeding depression load (639 horses). A pedigree was generated with the last fve generations (5026 animals) used as the reference population (average inbreeding coefcient of 8.39% and average relatedness coefcient of 10.76%).

  • Incest Avoidance and Prohibition: Psychobiological and Cultural Factors

Natal, RN, Brasil Resumo: Embora historicamente a regulação proibitiva do incesto seja considerada um fenômeno cultural quase universal que não é influenciado por fatores psicobiológicos relativos à história evolutiva da espécie humana, evidências recentes têm questionado essa visão tradicional e defendido que a evitação e a proibição do incesto são influenciadas biológica e cognitivamente com a cultura. Este artigo objetiva desenvolver uma discussão teórica acerca da inibição e proibição do incesto, enfatizando os mecanismos evolutivos subjacentes a esses fenômenos. Argumenta-se a existência de mecanismos endógenos que evoluíram porque inibem a atividade sexual entre parentes próximos e que formam a base para regular socialmente a proibição do incesto (mecanismo exógeno). Destaca-se o efeito Westermarck, no qual a proximidade de pessoas que vivem juntas desde a infância provoca uma aversão ao intercurso sexual entre elas. A ausência de propensão ao incesto e sua proibição institucional constituem uma complexa integração entre fatores psicobiológicos e culturais. Palavras-chave: incesto, evitação, proibição, evolução.

  • The Oedipus Effect Transcript
    The Oedipus Effect Transcript Date: Tuesday, 18 February 2014 - 6:00PM Location: Museum of London 18 February 2014 The Oedipus Effect Professor Glenn D Wilson Sophocles’ great tragedy Oedipus Rex tells the story of a man who, according to the Oracle, is fated to kill his father and marry his mother. Horrified by this prospect he moves far away from home, has a “road rage” confrontation with a stranger and kills him (later to find out it was his father) and goes on to marry a woman who turns out to be his biological mother. He had not realised that the parents from whom he tried to distance himself were actually foster parents. Many other writers have seen profound significance in this story. In 1851, Wagner wrote that “today we need only expound faithfully on the myth of Oedipus and we in it win an intelligible picture of the whole history of mankind”. Uncontainable incestuous desires appeared as a theme in several of his operas. Half a century later, Sigmund Freud made the Oedipus complex the centrepiece of his psychoanalytic theory. Little boys, he concluded, went through a phase of desiring intercourse with their mother and fearing castration by their jealous father. Little girls were thought to desire their father, envying his penis and feeling hostile toward their mother (the Electra complex). Homosexuality (called “inversion”) was said to be caused by a “failure to resolve the Oedipus complex”. Freud became progressively grandiose in his views about the importance of his Oedipus theory. In Totem and Taboo (1918), he wrote that “the beginnings of religion, morals, society and art converge in the Oedipus complex” (Schey, 2013).

All rights reserved INBREEDING DEPRESSION IN CONSERVATION BIOLOGY Philip W. Hedrick Department of Biology, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287; email: [email protected] Steven T. Kalinowski Conservation Biology Division, National Marine Fisheries Service, 2725 Montlake Blvd. East, Seattle, Washington 98112; email: [email protected] Key Words endangered species, extinction, fitness, genetic restoration, purging ■ Abstract Inbreeding depression is of major concern in the management and con- servation of endangered species. Inbreeding appears universally to reduce fitness, but its magnitude and specific effects are highly variable because they depend on the genetic constitution of the species or populations and on how these genotypes interact with the environment. Recent natural experiments are consistent with greater inbreeding depression in more stressful environments. In small populations of randomly mating individuals, such as are characteristic of many endangered species, all individuals may suffer from inbreeding depression because of the cumulative effects of genetic drift that decrease the fitness of all individuals in the population. In three recent cases, intro- ductions into populations with low fitness appeared to restore fitness to levels similar to those before the effects of genetic drift. Inbreeding depression may potentially be reduced, or purged, by breeding related individuals. However, the Speke’s gazelle example, often cited as a demonstration of reduction of inbreeding depression, appears to be the result of a temporal change in fitness in inbred individuals and not a reduction in inbreeding depression.

  • Gothic Incest
    34 1 ‘Unimaginable sensations’: father– daughter incest and the economics of exchange u Let a veil be drawn over the unimaginable sensations of a guilty father. Mary Shelley, Matilda (1959)1 here are several problems that usually emerge in scholarship exam- Tining representations of father–daug hter incest in the Gothic, even in works by scholars whose goal is to lay bare the feminist themes that are central to the genre. Principal among these is that representations of father– daughter incest often cause works to be placed in the gendered subgenre of Female Gothic and to be viewed through a lens predicated on this generic division. What frequently stems from this homogenis- ing gesture is a misinterpretation or misrepresentation of the ambition of the Gothic as displaying what E. J. Clery refers to as an ‘intrinsic “femaleness” ’.2 This leads to texts being viewed as part of a Male or Female Gothic form and their representations of father–daug hter incest to be understood through these gendered divisions. As I suggested in the Introduction, the application of Freudian theory, sociological approaches to incest and structural anthropological discussions of the incest taboo contribute to reading father– daughter incest within a gendered frame- work that tends to view this incestuous relationship as alternately imag- ined or abusive. Freudian approaches are often applied in conjunction with anthropological understandings of incest such as those advanced by Claude Lévi- Strauss, who theorised that: ‘the prohibition of incest is … the fundamental step … in which the transition from nature to culture is 34 Jenny DiPlacidi - 9781526107558 Downloaded from manchesterhive.com at 10/06/2021 03:27:45PM via free access 35 ‘Unimaginable sensations’ accomplished’.3 The Freudian psychoanalytic preoccupations that under- pin much scholarship on the Gothic similarly identify the prohibition of incest as fundamental to the formation of culture, as incest allows adoles- cents to move from the family into exogamic relationships that complete the transition into culture.
