Abstract
The parameters of glucose tolerance test are suitable for an additional rec ommendation for the valuation of the breeding bulls before the start of tes t could be given. This show the variation, the genetic determination and th e mean correlations between physiological indicator and estimated breeding value by 0.40 to 0.50. The offspring's breeding value is suitable equivalen t examined physiological indicators. These relationships are affected by fa ctors such as experimental conditions, age and nutritional state of animals .
