Abstract

The selection and genetic parameters of wool productivity of Kazakh Bactrian camels (Camelus Bactrianus) have been determined. The coefficient of shearing of wool is 1.40 for breeding camels older than 7 years, 1.09 for camels, 1.25 for repair males (4‑5 years), 1.05 for repair females (3‑4 years). The coefficient of heritability of shearing of wool in linear camels is 0.35‑0.42, non-linear 0.22. The coefficient of herita‑ bility of length and tone of wool is 0.44 for camels of linear ori‑ gin‑0.46 and 0.42‑0.47, non-linear origin 0.31 and 0.38. The co‑ efficient of repeatability of wool shearing is 0.48‑0.75 for Kazakh Bactrian camels of the Temir Bura line, 0.52‑0.81 for Aport bura, and 0.35‑0.69 for non-linear camels. The obtained values turned out to be highly statistically reliable at P 0.01‑0.001. The coefficient of genetic correlation between wool shear‑ ing and live weight is 0.446‑0.654, wool shearing and wool length 0.493‑0.742, wool shearing and toned wool 0.517‑0.689, the length of wool and toned wool is 0.571‑0.789.
