Abstract

The genetic variance of inbred sires is increased and variance due to additive x additive effects proportionately more than that due to additive ones. In case of inbreeding by mating sire to daughters the time interval elite sire - son needs not to be elongated so that the genetic progress could be increased by this procedure. This pertains even more to the procedure where inbred sires are produced from sib mating. Use of such sires should increase the genetic gain via the sire son path by about 10 %.
