. Main genes determining white coat colour in Arctic foxes are: recessive gene d and incompletely dominant, autosomal gene S with lethal effect in homozygous condition. The white coat colour of Arctic foxes bred on Polish farms had been determined solely by the recessive gene until the 1970s, when the Shadow variety was imported from Norway. The genetic code of the two varieties was different, but this fact was not taken into account. The results obtained in the present study do not confirm the theories on the heredity of white coat colour of Arctic foxes. The authors of these theories assumed that the coat colour depends on the presence of a recessive gene, the only factor responsible for the white furcoat. Apart from Polar and Shadow white foxes, there is a wide variety of darker white animals, and this fact suggests that there is a number of cumulative genes responsible for the intensity of coat pigmentation.

Data on 3782 arctic foxes, bred on a Sniaty fox farm (Poland) in 1985-1998 were used to estimate the genetic, phenotypic and environmental trends of conformation traits. Body size (BS), colour type (CT), colour purity (CP), coat density (CD), hair length (HL), general appearance (GA) and total score (TS) were analysed. The BLUP with a single-trait animal model was used to estimate the genetic trends. The estimates of genetic and phenotypic trends were positive for BS, CT, CP, HL, GA, TS and ranged from 0.0006 to 0.0995 point/year and from 0.0100 to 0.1302 point/year, respectively, but were negative for CD (- 0.0374 point/year and - 0.0262 point/year, respectively). The environmental trends ranged from - 0.0024 point/year for CT to 0.0304 point/year for TS.

Genetic parameters (heritability, genetic and phenotypic correlations) of chosen coat colour traits of golden fox were estimated. 1013 animals, born on the ?niaty fox farm (Poland) in 1985-1999 were evaluated. In 1993-1999 colour type was additionally assessed for 833 animals, by detailed evaluation of coat colour on the back and sides of the body, throat colour, belly colour and the amount of silver hair. The REML method was used to estimate genetic (co)variance components. Data were transformed using the probit transformation. Heritability estimates for coat traits were low (0.04 to 0.22). Values of most of the estimated genetic parameters (h2, rG, rP) were comparable to those frequently reported for other colour types of silver fox.
