Average percentage genomic inbreeding coefficient (FROH) for different length categories of ROH across six goat populations.
| Length category (Mb) | Boer (n = 13) | Karamojong (n = 15) | Kigezi (n = 29) | Mubende (n = 29) | SEA (n = 29) | Sebei (n = 29) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| N0 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 5 | 2 | 13 |
| FROH(2-4) | 4.17 | 0.17 | 0.54 | 0.28 | 0.30 | 0.11 |
| FROH(4-8) | 4.75 | 0.23 | 0.28 | 0.20 | 0.20 | 0.08 |
| FROH(8-16) | 3.50 | 0.67 | 0.27 | 0.33 | 0.26 | 0.21 |
| FROH(>16) | 1.37 | 1.36 | 0.18 | 0.40 | 0.43 | 0.39 |
| Total FROH≥2 Mb | 13.79 | 2.44 | 1.27 | 1.20 | 1.18 | 0.78 |
SEA = Small East African goat, N0 = Number of individuals from the samples where no ROH ≥ 2 Mb, homozygous segments were detected, FROH≥2Mb = overall percentage genomic inbreeding at ROH threshold of 2 Mb, FROH(x-y) = genomic inbreeding based on ROHs of length x–y Mb.
