Abstract

Maintaining genetic diversity is very important during gene preservation. The aim of the present study was to analyse the pedigree information of Hungarian Nonius horses. The base pedigree information was given by the Nonius Horse Breeding Association. The total pedigree file contained the data of 30,826 animals. Various measures of genetic variability were calculated. The dataset was analysed using the POPREP software. The mare “272 Nonius XL-68 Dorka” and the stallion “3665 Nonius XVII-30 (IVtm.)” appeared with the most offspring in the dataset. There was only one youngster after the 75% of the mares and 54% of the stallions in our dataset. The most offspring selected as breeding animals was found for the Nonius mare “47 Nonius Ürmény VI (Idill)” and stallion “1814 Nonius VI-24 (XVIItm.)”, respectively.
