Inbreeding

In animal husbandry, the mating of more closely related individuals of the same breed for four generations is known as inbreeding. Superior females and superior males of closely related individuals are identified and mated. The outcomes of inbreeding are as follows

Develops homozygous pure lines of the animal.

Exposes recessive genes for undesirable characters which may be eliminated.

Leads to accumulation superior genes and elimination of undesirable genes.

Continued inbreeding leads to reduced fertility and productivity of the animal. This is called inbreeding depression. It can be overcome by mating the animal with an unrelated superior animal of the same breed.
