Selective Breeding Achievements in Ukrainian Aquaculture: Past and Present

The creation of new populations is a relevant process as socio-economic and natural conditions change, and as keeping and feeding technologies improve. Therefore, a constant search is underway for desirable genotypes that meet modern challenges. Ukrainian selection in livestock breeding has a long history, during which new breeds were established that, in terms of productivity, were not inferior to foreign ones. Therefore, the purpose of the research was to analyze selection achievements in fish farming, with particular focus on pond carp farming. For this purpose, regulatory legal acts and the source method were used as the primary source. The assessment of breeding achievements was based on data on the dynamics of the breeding stock from the State Breeding Register (now the State Register of Breeding Subjects in Animal Husbandry) for 2002 ... 2023. In Ukraine, the breeding program to improve carp began in the 1930s under the leadership of A.I. Kuzyoma at the Ukrainian Research Institute of Fisheries (now the Institute of Fisheries of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine). Two breeds of carp were created, namely the Ukrainian scaly and the Ukrainian frame, which have not lost their potential for production in modern realities. Thanks to a wide network of fish farms and the direct participation of specialized research institutes, a modern genealogical structure of Ukrainian carp, both frame and scaly, has been created. The following intrabreed types have been tested and approved in the Ukrainian Scalloped breed: Nyvkivsky (Polissya and Forest-Steppe branches), Lyubinsky (Mykolaiv and Lyubinsky branches), Antoninsky-Zozulenetsky, and Nesvytsky; and in the Ukrainian Frame breed, respectively, Lyubinsky, Maloskalsky (Nyvkivsky, Lebedynsky, and Zakarpattya factory lines), Antoninsky-Zozulenetsky, Galician, and Nesvytsky. Today, the breeding base of scaly and frame forms of carp consists of 6 and 8 farms, which keep 4,023 and 4,261 fish, respectively.

Keywords: breeding achievements, breeds, intrabreed types, factory lines, numbers, females, males, breeding traits.
