The aims of this study were to assess the genomic relatedness of Estonian and selected European dairy cattle breeds and to examine the within-breed diversity of two Estonian dairy breeds using genome-wide SNP data. This study was based on a genotyped heifer population of the Estonian Red (ER) and Estonian Holstein (EH) breeds, including about 10% of all female cattle born in 2017–2020 (sample sizes n = 215 and n = 2265, respectively). The within-breed variation study focused on the level of inbreeding using the ROH-based inbreeding coefficient. The genomic relatedness analyses were carried out among two Estonian and nine European breeds from the WIDDE database. Admixture analysis revealed the heterogeneity of ER cattle with a mixed pattern showing several ancestral populations containing a relatively low proportion (1.5–37.0%) of each of the reference populations used. There was a higher FROH in EH (FROH = 0.115) than in ER (FROH = 0.044). Compared to ER, the long ROHs of EH indicated more closely related parents. The paternal origin of the genetic material used in breeding had a low effect on the inbreeding level. However, among EH, the highest genomic inbreeding was estimated in daughters of USA-born sires. |
