METHOD FOR PRESERVING GENE POOL OF BACTRIAN CAMELS OF KALMYK BREED Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A01K67/02 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: method includes thoroughbred breeding using the method of selection by individual exterior-constitutional and interior characteristics and productivity. Wherein the animals are selected according to genetic characteristics, the marker alleles of productivity are determined, the animals are selected according to unique sets of alleles, directional pairing is used to ensure the effect of heterosis, and molecular genetic analysis is performed based on these indices. The selection or culling of animals characterizing the desired genotype of the preserved species is carried out.

EFFECT: invention makes it possible to preserve the gene pool of camels so that, with the genetically determined productivity of animals, the exterior-constitutional characteristics are not significantly altered depending on various environmental conditions.
