Optimal mass selection policies for schemes with overlapping generations and restricted inbreeding

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Optimum breeding schemes for maximising the rate of genetic progress with a restriction on the rate of inbreeding (per year or per generation) are investigated for populations with overlapping generations undergoing mass selection. The optimisation is for the num...
