Background
Rex rabbit (also named as rex rabbit) is a precious rabbit for both skin and meat. The rex rabbit is bred by utilizing the hair type mutation of meat rabbits, the covered hair has the typical characteristics of being thin, dense and flat, the fur quality is good, and the market value is high. In 1924, raccoon beaver-colored ricks rabbits were first shown at the international bleb in paris, france to receive a high degree of evaluation by people, and then the ricks rabbits were rapidly spread around the world. As the breeding history of the rex rabbits is short, the genetic basis is narrow, systematic breeding is lacked, and the growth speed and heavy performance of the rex rabbits are low. China is a big country for breeding rex rabbits, a good rex rabbit variety is seriously lacked in production, the production index of the rex rabbits is generally lower than that of meat rabbits by 30% or more at present, and the disadvantages of low production performance and poor breeding benefit of the rex rabbits are obvious under the condition that the fur price is relatively low, so that the rex rabbit industry is continuously atrophied. Because the reproductive capacity, the growth capacity and the fur quality of the rex rabbits have genetic antagonism, the selection of a full-purpose variety with high production performance and high fur quality is difficult. And a complete set system breeding technical strategy is applied, main selection characters are reasonably distributed, different specialized rex rabbit male parent strains and female parent strains are respectively bred, a complete set hybridization breeding system is established, gene complementation potential and hybrid vigor can be integrally exerted, and optimal breeding and production effects are realized. At present, no commercial rex rabbit mating line varieties exist at home and abroad, no report on breeding of the special rex rabbit strains is found, and the advanced and applicable breeding method and successful experience of the special rex rabbit strains are lacked, so that the progress and healthy development of the industry of the rex rabbits in China are restricted.

breeding target of line A: specialization of maternal line, maternal line female parent, white quilt hair, hair length 1.8-2.0cm; the quilt has dense and flat capillaries, short hairs, smooth hand feeling, low coarse hair content, full and thick sole covered by the hairs, and no individual with rough hairs, thick hairs and uneven hairs; the number born alive is more than or equal to 8.2, the weight of 3-week-old litter is more than or equal to 2.4kg, and the number of 5-week-old weaning is more than or equal to 7.8.
A, establishing a breeding basic group: 200 (160/40) beaver rabbit species are introduced from a rabbit breeding field of an agricultural academy of Jiangsu province in 2005 by the company. During 2005-2012, this rabbit population was kept bred locked, with pedigree and partial productivity recordings. 1500 young rabbits, 1200 female rabbits and 300 male rabbits, were registered with cumulative ear numbers in the 2 nd and 3 rd nests of the American rex rabbit population from 3 months of 2012. The standby rabbits are finally selected to be bred and produced by 800 female rabbits and 100 male rabbits at the age of 6 months according to the health condition, the quality of the hair and the weight of the hair during the weaning to mating stage. After all the replacement rabbits in 12 months in 2012 are 6-7 months old, estrus is synchronously adopted, 3 fetuses are continuously bred according to a 42-day breeding mode, the number of born alive piglets, the weight of newborn litter, the weight of 3-week-old litter and the number of weaned individuals are measured and recorded, and then the 4 indexes are standardized and weighted according to the weight of 0.2/0.2/0.4/0.2 to calculate the index of the female parent rabbit. And calculating the breeding male rabbit index according to a female rabbit index calculation method by using the average reproductive performance of the holomorphic as the reproductive performance of the breeding male rabbits. According to the sequence of female rabbit breeding indexes and male rabbit breeding indexes from high to low, the former 300 female rabbits are selected and reserved, and the former 30 male rabbits are selected and reserved as a 0 generation breeding basic group of the A line.
A is updated from generation 0 to generation 1: after the 0 generation breeding basic group is built, all female rabbits hang female rabbit cards, the breeding is pure by adopting a mode of estrus synchronization and artificial insemination, inbreeding is avoided, and 10-15 female rabbits are matched with each male rabbit.
According to the matching scheme, field insemination is completed, after matching is completed, matching information is filled in the female rabbit card according to the actual matching execution condition, and the matching information at least comprises the matching date, the male rabbit and the like. On the 12 th day after mating, all the mating female rabbits were fettled, and the pregnancy was filled in to the mating female rabbit card.
Delivering after 30-32 days after mating, and timely measuring and recording the information such as the number born, the number born alive, the weight of newborn nest, the fostering and the like; 7-8 head fetuses are selected and reserved in each nest, 8-9 head fetuses are reserved behind the head fetuses, and 10 individual female characters can be reserved; when the litter size is less than or equal to 6, the litter weight of 3 weeks, the weight of weaning litter and the number of weaning individuals are measured. The birth date of the newborn rabbit is based on the mating date plus 31 days.
Weaning measurements and baby rabbit enrollment were completed at 5 weeks of age of baby rabbits, the general flow of weaning measurements being: (1) weighing the whole nest, and measuring and recording the weight of the weaning nest and the number of weaning nests; (2) identifying the sex; (3) weighing the individual; (4) punching ear numbers; (5) the individual's ear number, father number, mother number, sex, date of birth, date of weaning, and weight of weaned individuals were recorded. When the ear number is marked, the whole nest is eliminated under the following conditions: closing the nest; mastitis of female rabbits; the young rabbit suffers from diseases of digestive tract, respiratory tract and skin; the average weight of the young rabbits is lower than 500g. Except for the above, all young rabbits need to be registered with a hired number. And calculating selection indexes of all characters at the stage, and selecting and reserving 50% according to the indexes. Generally, rex rabbits are slaughtered after 13 weeks of age, the selection at the stage only reduces the workload of measurement at 13 weeks of age, and if no special reason exists, the selection can be omitted at the stage, and the whole group measurement is carried out at 13 weeks of age.
And (3) measuring and recording the individual weight, the body type score, the fur score and the reproductive development score at 13 weeks of age, calculating a selection index, selecting and reserving 25% of female rabbits and 10% of male rabbits if the weaning measurement is not selected, continuously selecting and reserving 50% of female rabbits and 20% of male rabbits if the weaning measurement is selected and reserved.
And (4) measuring and recording the individual weight, the body type score, the fur score and the reproductive development score at the age of 17 weeks, calculating a selection index, continuously selecting and reserving 50% for female rabbits and 20% for male rabbits.
And (4) measuring and recording individual weight, body type score, fur score, sole hair score and quilt hair length at the age of 23 weeks, calculating a selection index, continuously selecting and keeping 80% for female rabbits and 80% for male rabbits.
After the determination of 23 weeks, the male rabbits and the female rabbits are respectively transferred to a male rabbit shed and a female rabbit shed for preparation of breeding production, male rabbits with poor sexual desire and poor semen quality are actively eliminated in the process, and the following female rabbits which are not suitable for breeding are actively eliminated: ill or sanitary conditions; infertility of the head and fetus; laying the cage bottom; no padding; poor lactation; and (4) biting or treading dead baby rabbits.
The selection and retention of the breeding rabbits of the next generation can be completed by 3-4 fetuses according to the above process, and the updating of other generations is similar to the above process, and is not described again. In 2018, the A line has completed 5 generations of breeding, and the main reproductive performance of each generation is shown in Table 1:
