Autozygosity is the homozygous state of Identical-By-Descent (IBD) alleles, which can result from several phenomena. The increase in inbreeding leads to different negative effects such as a reduction in genetic variance, with a reduction in individual performance (inbreeding depression) and lower population viability. Nowadays, among several alternative methods to estimate inbreeding, F estimated from Run of Homozygosity (FROH) is considered the most powerful. This study aimed to provide a systematic review to comprehensive understanding of the structure and dynamics of genomic diversity and the impact of ROH studies over the last decade, highlighting directions and opportunities for future research. 406 publications were identified on WoS core collection and applied to bibliometric analysis available in the R environment. The analysis revealed an increased number of publications per .. View More»
