Verifying the suitability of two different lines Amur mirror carp to produce commercial hybrids of common carp breed with M2 on maternity position - wide-area test
VOJTĚŠEK, Zbyněk
The main aim of this work was to compare the survival and growth of common carp hybrids using two lines of Amur mirror carp. The test was created using the top cross breed with M2 on the maternity position. On the maternal line were crossbreeded males M2 (for the production of pure breed to verify the heterosis effect), the Nordic mirror carp M72, and two lines of Amur mirror carp (Alp - bred in Pohořelice and Alv - bred in Vodňany). As a control, the breed of hybrid Ropšín scaly carp and carp Tataj were used. The test was conducted at five locations from planting of the yolk sack (K0) until rearing up to the market size K3. During rearing regular catches were carried out, in order to control the growth and survival. After the subsequent determination of the corrected weight and survival for better quality of evaluation were determined. Consequently, some differences were found between the breeds and heterogeneous effect was fixed. After evaluating the test, where the lines crossed on the parent breed M2 achieved better results than pure-bred lines, I would not recommend this line for commercial breeding. In contrast, both lines of Amur mirror carp could be very well used for commercial farming, mainly due to higher resistance of hybrids to KHV.
