With the help of CT based selection three rabbit groups were formed (progenies of the weakest '-', the best '+' and the second generation of the best bucks '++') on the basis of their L-value (average surface of the m. longissimus dorsi between the 2nd and 3rd and 4th and 5th lumbar vertebra). The differences were 5% in the L-value and 2% in the dressing percentage between the two extremes ('-' and '++' sel.). The carcass, the intermediate part and the hind part weight increased by 35, 22 and 14 g res. in the above mentioned order. The weight of the skin and gastrointestinal tract decreased by 17 and 23 g resp. There were no differences in the case of the fore part and edible organs. As a result of the two years selection by CT the L-value (18.35, 20.71 cm') and the dressing percentage (61.76, 63.77%) increased by 11 and 2 % resp. between the first and last stage of selection
