F G, inbreeding coefficient estimated as the probability of belonging to any of the HBD classes averaged over the whole genome; F HOM, inbreeding coefficient based on the proportion of homozygous SNPs; F ExHOM, excess homozygosity estimator; F ROH, inbreeding coefficient estimated as the proportion of the genome captured by ROH; F GRM1, inbreeding coefficient based on the diagonal elements of the genomic relationship matrix (dividing all SNP contributions by the same denominator); F GRM2, inbreeding coefficient based on the diagonal elements of the genomic relationship matrix (dividing each SNP contribution by its own weight 2f i (1 − f i), f i being the frequency of allele i); F UNI, inbreeding coefficient based on the correlation between uniting gametes; F PED, inbreeding coefficient estimated from pedigree data
