Tenyészési

Tenyészési is a Hungarian adjective related to breeding and the management of breeding programs. It stems from tenyésztés (breeding, cultivation) and is used to describe activities, plans, or materials connected with the breeding of animals or plants. In scientific and agricultural language it functions as a modifier before nouns, as in tenyészési program, tenyészési cél, vagy tenyészési anyag.

The scope of tenyészési covers various stages of breeding work, including the selection of breeding stock, planning of matings, evaluation criteria, and propagation methods. In animal breeding, tenyészési activities aim to improve traits such as productivity, health, fertility, and disease resistance; in plant breeding, they may target yield, quality, pest tolerance, or adaptation to environments.

Relation to related terms: tenyészési is closely connected to tenyészeti (breeding facility) and nemesítés (genetic improvement). While nemesítés often emphasizes long-term genetic enhancement and the development of improved lines, tenyészési focuses on the practical management and execution of breeding programs, including record-keeping and mating plans. The exact usage can vary among disciplines and contexts.

Common phrases include tenyészési program, tenyészési cél, tenyészési anyag, and tenyészési mutatók, all referring to aspects of breeding activities and their assessment.
