ABSTRACT
The main aim of this study was to estimate phenotypic correlations among live weight, withers height, rump height, chest depth, chest width, thoracic girth, body length, hip widths (between iliac tuberosities and between ischial tuberosities) and forelimb cannon perimeter with antler length measured during the growth of marals on a Kazakh farm. The data comprised 18 animals studied during their growth (at 18 months and at 24 months). In maral, the first period of antler productivity takes place at the age of 24 months. This fact should be taken into account in order to select the best animals for antler production, which is the main purpose for farming this species.
RESUMEN
El objetivo de este estudio fue estimar en ciervos colorados de una granja de Kazajstán, las correlaciones fenotípicas entre el peso vivo, altura a la cruz, la profundidad del pecho, ancho de pecho, circunferencia torácica, longitud del cuerpo, ancho de cadera (entre tuberosidades ilíacas e isquiáticas) y perímetro del miembro anterior, con el largo de cuernos medido durante su crecimiento. Los datos de este estudio comprendieron 18 animales durante su crecimiento (entre los 18 y 24 meses). En el ciervo colorado el período inicial de la productividad de cuernos tiene lugar a los de 24 meses de edad. Este hecho se debe tener en cuenta para seleccionar los mejores animales para la producción de cuernos, objetivo principal para la crianza de esta especie.
