Abstract
Natural selection in populations of cattle was studied. Heterozygosity level, pure-blooded proportion, stabilizing selection, and directiona l selection II acted as quantitative traits. Changes in the proportion of pure bloods with time were found, something not taken into account in breeding practice.
