The aim of the work was to confirm of reject a hypothesis that cows of Polish red-white breed of dual purpose performance with different contribution of hf cattle genes, reared in two poviats of Lower Silesia (Sudeten Submountain) in 2006-2007, differ in results of a type and conformation assessment. Cows were housed in region of Walbrzych (54 heads) and Jelenia Gora (92 heads). Three groups of cows with different contribution of hf cattle genes were distinguished. It appeared that the differentiation of those regions of Sudeten Submountain did not influenced in a significant way the assessment of a type and body conformation of cows. However, significant relationships (p = 0.05) were noted between genotype of cows and conformation features; ⩾ 50.1% contribution of hf cattle genes improved height in a sacrum, capacity, legs and hooves built and a total score as well.
