Evaluating the descendants of stallions from the Cor de la Bryere line in Czech Warmblood breeding

Original language description

The main aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the stallion Cor de la Bryère&apos;s line in Czech Warmblood breeding. The significance of this breeding line was evaluated by performing a comparison of the body measurements of descendants by the most important stallions permitted to act as stud horses within Czech Warmblood breeding. The specific observed attributes for evaluating the quality of the stallions were the values of descendants&apos; basic body measurements, i.e. stick height at withers, tape height at withers, chest circumference and cannon bone circumference. A total of seven breeding stallions were compared, three of which were Holsteiners, three Hanoverians and one a Czech Warmblood. The comparison group consisted of 347 descendants of the Czech Warmblood breed by the sires Calanthano, Carlos, Carol, Cartouche, Catango Z, Comero and Chazar.A high statistically conclusive influence of the sire was only established for cannon bone circumference. With the other body measurements, the influence of the sire was not proven. When evaluating individual years according to cannon bone circumference, the best group was judged to be descendants born in the year 1994. Furthermore, it was determined that on average both sexes of the descendants of this line meet the breed standard for the Czech Warmblood in terms of cannon bone circumference. Another factor evaluated was stick height at withers, which, like cannon bone circumference, is subject to the breed standard for the Czech Warmblood. In this case it was not possible to statistically demonstrate the effect of the observed factors. In view of the importance of this body measurement, the maximum, minimum and average values were evaluated, and on this basis it can be said that for stallions from the Cor de la Bryère line , bree ders should select mares with a smaller body frame but a thick cannon bone.
