Abstract

Breeding and pedigree work on improvement of the Kushum breed of horses is carried out on the way of increase of pedigree and productive qualities. The farm carries out purposeful selection and selection on the complex of breeding traits, breeding of young stock with the use of elements of the cultural herd method of keeping, which ensures the development and consolidation of useful heredity in horses.

Determination of genetic characteristics, such as variability, heritability and repeatability, plays an important role in the development of breeding programs and prediction of breeding results. Genetic characteristics are also used in the construction of mathematical and probabilistic models of populations, which contributes to both theoretical research and practical applications. For the effective use of genetic-statistical methods in breeding, it is necessary for traits to have a high level of heritability, normal distribution, continuous variability and additive type of inheritance.

The results of the research showed that the live weight indicator most fully meets the above requirements. The highest variability was observed for live weight (2.75 in stallions, 9.67 in mares) and metacarpal girth (1.81 and 5.91, respectively). A high correlation was found between live weight and chest girth (0.329 in stallions, 0.337 in mares) and metacarpal girth (0.343 and 0.351).

The farm's horses are quite large: adult breeding stallions measure 158.4-161.2-189.5-21.0 cm and have a live weight of 542.6 kg, while adult mares measure 153.2 cm in height, 158.0 cm in oblique trunk length, 185.4 cm in chest girth, 19.3 cm in bony length, and 482.5 kg in live weight.
