Резюме: In the recent study the focus is on the impact of the trotter mares imported from Hungary. They are descendants of the Russian trotter breed and are entered into the breeding nucleus after 1980, which is defined as stage two of the development of the trotter population in Bulgaria. The imported from Hungary mares are 11 in total, 4 out of which became foundation mares of families, whose descendants are included in the breeding process at present. Those mares are: Bazsarozsa (HUN), Ebonit (HUN), Eper (HUN) and Zefir (HUN). With biggest influence is the family of Eper, represented by 19 broodmares. Second of importance is the family of Bazsarozsa, represented by 13 broodmares, followed by Zefir with 10 representatives. In a relation to exterior the foundation mares and their female descendants have met the requirements for the breed and have been suitable for development of the population.
