Pre-selection against a lethal recessive allele in breeding schemes with optimum-contribution selection or truncation selection

Table 6 Least-squares means for rate of true inbreeding from generations \({t}\) = 1 to 2 according to selection strategy and starting frequency of the lethal recessive allele at a 0.01 \(\Delta {\text{F}}_{{{\text{true}}4 - 10}}\) in a breeding scheme with genomic prediction

Selection strategy	Starting frequency of the lethal recessive allele
Selection strategy	0.05	0.10	0.15
POCS	0.0161^d	0.0157^d	0.0158^d
GOCS	0.0172^c	0.0171^c	0.0168^c
Truncation selection	0.0242^a	0.0233^b	0.0227^b

Means with the same superscripted letter are not significantly different from each other (p < 0.05)
