In sheep, susceptibility to scrapie is associated with the prion protein (PrP) genepolymorphism. In this study the association between selected growth traits (daily weightgain from birth to weaning and in farm fattening performance test, as well as bodyweight at one and two years) and PrP genotypes ARR/ARR, ARR/XXX and XXX/XXX (XXXrepresenting AHQ, ARQ, ARH or VRQ) has been investigated in Hungarian Merino (n=286)and German Mutton Merino (n=215) rams. No significant association was found amongthe studied growth traits and the PrP genotypes in the Hungarian Merino breed. In caseof a group of German Mutton Merino rams lamb daily gain was significantly (P≤0.05) –but in a small extent – associated with PrP genotype, which influenced the daily gainvalues by 9.6 %
