Advances by Selective Breeding for Aquatic Species: A Review (2014, background): “For instance, inbreeding can be kept as low as 1% per generation if a minimum of 50 pairs of breeders are selected per generation and if the number of progeny tested is restricted and standardized to no more than 30-50 per pair of parents [28].”
Mass selection for survival and resistance to OsHV-1 infection in Crassostrea gigas spat in field conditions: response to selection after four generations (2015, background): “Nevertheless, without individual tagging and pedigree records, this selection scheme could lead to inbreeding and thus reduce the response to selection (Bentsen and Olesen, 2002).”
