Abstract
Due to the intensification of agricultural production, genetic diversity has been reduced to a large extent. Presently, in the period of worldwide genetic conservation, we try to preserve as much of the gene pool of our valuable indigenous domestic animal breeds as we can. Therefore, traits that have no economic value at the moment should also be conserved. The different horn and coat colour varieties of Hungarian Grey Cattle are such valuable traits. Research has been done on the largest Hungarian Grey Cattle stock, at the Hortobágy Kht. Rates of the different horn and coat colour varieties were determined and relationships were analyzed between the above mentioned qualitative traits

Summary
Due to the intensification of agricultural production, genetic diversity has been reduced to a large extent. The different horn and coat colour varieties of Hungarian Grey Cattle are such valuable traits. Research has been done on the largest Hungarian Grey Cattle stock, at the Hortobágy Kht. Rates of the different horn and coat colour varieties were determined and relationships were analyzed between the above mentioned qualitative traits. Évi Rio de Janeiro-i konferencia kimondta, hogy a háziállatok is részét képezik a világ genetikai sokféleségének, ezért megőrzésük mindenképpen indokolt (Tőzsér és Gera, 2003). A háziállatok géntartalékainak védelme során úgy kell gazdálkodnunk a rendelkezésünkre álló génállománnyal – a távolabbi jövő ma még pontosan nem ismert érdekeinek szem előtt tartásával –, hogy abból minél többet meg tudjunk őrizni. A magyar szürke marha tulajdonságai régóta kutatások tárgyát képezik, de sok összefüggés még mindig tisztázásra szorul. A magyar szürke marha szarvszínében és szőrszínében megmutatkozó nagy változatosság részét képezi a világ genetikai örökségének, ezért ezen tulajdonságok megőrzése is mindenképpen indokolt
