Abstract
The aim of this study was characteristic of 251 thoroughbred mares from 12 female lines in the National Stud Kozienice, in years 1947–2009. The most numerous were lines Solina – 68 mares and Brzytwa – 33 mares. In the Lardoir and Nivea lines there was the least number of mares – 11. Cedra, Czapla, Czarka, Nivea and Via Doria lines should be considered as extinct ones in Kozienice Stud. 16 mares of the analyzed lines were included in breeding in 2009. Most of them were from Solina and Jaźwa lines what proves their established breeding value. However, considerable number of mares eliminated as a result of culling is a worrying issue. As a result of biometric analysis it was found that the mares of Czapla line were the highest, and they differed significantly from Cedra and Jaźwa. Also daughters of Czapla and Czarka were significantly higher than the offspring of Awaria II and Jaźwa. In the case of cannon circumference, the Czapla line significantly exceeded the Cedra line. Bay coat dominated almost in each line, with the exception of Via Doria, where most mothers were grey. Chestnut mares were the most numerous in the Brzytwa line. The profitability of thoroughbred horses breeding with respect to horse racing organisation in our country should be condisdered when looking for the reasons of continuously decreasing mares number in selective herd.
