Summary. The risk analysis is the one of crucial points of the modern approach for the epizootic situation assessment and biorisks management system. Most important for epizootic situation control and international trade management is the system of transboundary diseases distribution risk determination. This allows creating forecasts regarding diseases introduction and distribution among the countries and territories and to develop appropriate strategies of the diseases control and minimize trade-associated diseases related risks. The paper involves description of the basic definitions in area of the risk assessment, strategies and approaches for its determination and analysis. The role of the molecular genetics tools are described from the position of effectiveness for risks forecasting in wildlife and animal husbandry.
