CORPENICUS PROSJEKT
BIOTECHNICAL METHODS IN THE MAINTENANCE OF THE GENETIC DIVERSITY OF THE LIPIZZAN HORSE
BREED
The aim of the project:
 | To present a scientifically based description of the phenotypic and
genetic structure of Lipizzan horse breed |
 | To recommend how to use the results of the prosject in everyday practice
of breeders |
Detailed scientific goals:
To describe the gene structure of the breed using:
 | DNA markers |
 | blood groups |
 | polymorphic systems |
 | morphologic paremeters |
 | measurements, photo's etc. |
 | pedigree data (analysis of inbreeding) |
 | health status |
 | performance parameters (reproduction incl.) |
The participants:
Scientific parners:
 | Veterinärmedizinische Universität Wien, Institut für Tierzucht und
Genetik. |
 | University of Veterinary Science Budapest, Department of Animal
Husbandry. |
 | University of Ljubljana, Biotechnical Faculty, Zootechnical Department,
Veterinary Faculty. |
 | Veterinärmedizinische Universität Bern, Institut für Tierzucht |
 | LIF. |
Organization and disseminator:
Traditional Lipizzan Studs:
 | Djakovo |
 | Lipica |
 | Monterodonto |
 | Piber |
 | Simbata de Jos |
 | Silvasverad |
 | Topolcianky |
The reason for EU protection:
 | The Lipizzan breed is a Paneuropian breed |
 | The part of the heritage of the continent |
 | The scientific merits of the project |
 | The support of the Country Goverments |
The role of LIF in the accomplishment of the project
 | Clelection of pedigree data (lines and families) |
 | Description the detailed history of the breed |
 | Publishing |
 | Dissemination the results |
 | Organization of sampling |
The expected practical output of the project:
 | To describe the breed on scientific basis and to elaborate goal breed
standards. |
 | To establishe a system for avoiding inbreeding |
 | To establish a multimedia studbook system |
 | Publishing the results |
 | To demonstrate the genetic independence of the breed. |
Foreløpig er det 9 stutterier som har medvirket til prosjektet, med i
alt 586 hester.
 | Djakovo (64) |
 | Lipica (69) |
 | Monterodonto (63) |
 | Piber (87) |
 | Simbata de Jos (90) |
 | Silvasverad (77) |
 | Topolcianky (42) |
 | Spanske rideskole (66) |
 | Beclean (28) |
Desuten ingår 66 kladruber hester i prosjektet, på stutterier Kladrub
og Slatina. Dr. Merkens er bekymret at hestene i forsøket utgjør rasens avlsbasis.
Nå skal alle private rase foreningen sender sin informasjon til Dr.Merkens. Dette
gjelder avlshopper brukt i avl 97/98.
