What is AGR?

Postby vineyridge » Sat Oct 29, 2011 7:41 am

It's a percentage on the inbreeding reports generated here. It's not the same as the blood percentage for an ancestor, but it comes with the report with that ancestor.

PZ: The link in original thread you referenced doesn't work. Dates to MilesM and 2004. Wow! Nice memory. Been doing your memory exercises, have you?

::sigh:: You couldn't just be content with Miles' concise synopsis....hope you're reeeeeally good at math. I *think* this is a new address for the same document.

PZ: Thanks for the link. Math is not my favorite so, suffice to say, I went to the trusted information found on Wekiapedia. I now know everything that is worthy and reasonable to know about AGR and can honestly say that as it relates to our discussions involving heredity, it is of no consequence for intelligent equine conversation.

No wonder the referenced link in 2004 had so few posts.
