During the last 20 years a program to develop and commercialize the Pinus patula × Pinus tecunumanii hybrid, as a replacement for P. patula, has been successfully implemented. The first crosses were initiated during the early 1990s and lead to establishment of field trials across a wide variety of sites. This work gained further impetus when it became apparent that Fusarium circinatum, was causing poor post-planting survival of newly established stands of P. patula. P. tecunumanii, has been shown to be tolerant to this disease and thus a second, more comprehensive hybrid testing phase was implemented. Improvements in controlled pollination techniques and propagation methods, as well as access to genetically improved parent-stock and the use of molecular marker technology for fingerprinting was effectively utilized to greatly improve the process during this second phase. The use of artificial inoculation trials have demonstrated that the hybrid, in particular when using the low elevation (LE) provenances of P. tecunumanii, had substantially greater tolerance to F. circinatum than P. patula and survival figures from field trials support these results. Four-year volumes also indicate large growth improvements, although frost damage on certain sites presents a challenge for deployment on colder sites; and this is being tackled through breeding and accurate mapping of frost risk. Large-scale controlled pollinations and vegetative multiplication are now utilized commercially to produce the P. patula × P. tecunumanii (LE) hybrid as an alternative to P. patula. 相似文献

Genetic parameters for various wood density traits were estimated in 29-year-old trees of 18 full-sib families of hybrid larch
(Larix gmelinii var. japonica × Larix kaempferi) F1. Intra-ring density variation (IDV) was also evaluated using a model that expresses the pattern curve from earlywood to latewood
as a power function. A high IDV indicates an abrupt change in wood density from earlywood to latewood. The ring width and
wood density traits of individual rings were determined by X-ray densitometry. Overall wood density (RD) was shown to increase
with increasing ring number, ranging from 0.42–0.59 g/cm3, whereas IDV of individual rings decreased gradually from pith outwards. Estimates of individual tree narrow-sense heritability
of RD and IDV were 0.66 and 0.67, respectively. IDV showed negative genetic and phenotypic correlations with RD (r
g = −0.99, r
p = −0.72). The predicted genetic gains in latewood proportion and IDV were higher than that of RD. These results suggest that
the intra-ring density variation is under moderate genetic control equivalent to wood density. The trend of increasing wood
density from earlywood to latewood was associated with changes in both tracheid diameter and cell wall thickness. 相似文献

This study aimed to understand the interaction between temperature and genotype in terms of the effect on early seedling development of European aspen (Populus tremula) and various F2-aspen hybrids. We evaluated the response of 16 different European aspen and F2-hybrid families on seed germination, survival rate and seedling height in one- and two-family trials under three different temperature regimes. In one-family trials, higher germination and higher survival rates were observed in higher temperature (C1700), leading to taller seedlings. European aspen × hybrid aspen individuals (Asp × Hyb) had a higher survival rate and taller seedlings than Asp, Hyb × Asp or Hyb × Hyb individuals. The difference between Asp × Hyb and Hyb × Asp was pronounced. Both growth conditions and genotype (i.e., hybrid cross) had strong effects on germination, survival rate and height of European aspen and F2-hybrid seedlings. However, the interaction of genotype and growth conditions also had a significant influence on survival rate and seedling height, but not on germination. Two-family trials involving European aspen and F2-hybrids led to significant negative effects on germination and survival rate and also facilitation effects on seedling height. Similarly, genotype had strong effects on germination and survival rate. Different genotypes and traits affected survival rate and seedling height differently in different growth conditions. These differences were more pronounced in the warmest environment, i.e., 1,700 degree days. We conclude that introgression between F2-hybrids and local European aspen is likely in the current climate, and any warming will likely favor certain F2-hybrids, especially the most probable types (P. tremula × (P. tremula × P. tremuloides)). 相似文献

Visually graded Douglas-fir (DF) has wide variability within grade. Variability for 2 × 4 lumber has likely increased because harvest has shifted from federal forests to private plantation forests that contain high percentages of juvenile wood. To investigate resource variability, six No. 2, 2 × 4 DF packages were acquired from six mills. From each package, 124 samples were destructively tested in bending. Mean modulus of elasticity (MOE15) ranged from 9.8 to 13.4 GPa, and three mills did not meet the grade requirements (11.0 GPa). Bending strength (F b) ranged from 5.5 to 11.3 MPa, and three mills did not meet the grade requirements (9.3 MPa). ANOVA of MOE15 % and F b showed significant differences at the 0.05 significance level. MOE15 explained from 50 to 78 % of the variability in strength. These data suggest that variation between mills is high and destructive testing is critical for more accurate characterization of lumber properties. 相似文献

Leyland cypress (×Cupressocyparis leylandii) has been regarded as an intergeneric hybrid between Monterey cypress (Cupressus macrocarpa) and Alaska cypress (Chamaecyparis nootkatensis) in the Cupressaceae. Each partial sequence of the 18S-rDNA from nuclear and therbcL from chloroplast DNA genomes was determined using above three species. At the 59th site from the 5′ end of the 152 bp of
the determined 18S-rDNA sequence, one base difference was identified between Monterey cypress (T) and Alaska cypress (A). However, Leyland cypress
showed either nucleotide A or T at this site. Since nuclear DNA is inherited by biparental mode, this result shows genetic
evidence that the nucleic genome of Leyland cypress originates from Monterey cypress and Alaska cypress and that this species
is of hybrid origin. 相似文献

Visually graded southern pine (SP) has wide variability within grade. For 2 × 4 lumber, this variability has increased because it is harvested from both natural forests and plantation forests where trees contain high percentages of juvenile wood. To investigate resource variability, six kiln-dried No. 2 2 × 4 SP packages were acquired from six mills. From each package, 124 samples were destructively tested in bending. Mean modulus of elasticity (MOE15) ranged from 9.2 to 13.1 GPa, and three mills did not meet the design values (11.0 GPa). Bending strength (F b) ranged from 7.6 to 11.9 MPa, and four mills did not meet the design values (10.3 MPa). Analysis of variance of MOE15 and F b showed significant differences between mills. MOE15 explained from 33 to 51 % of the variability in F b. These data suggest that variation between mills is high and destructive testing is critical for more accurate characterization of lumber properties. 相似文献

The area covered by plantations of hybrid poplar in Europe is increasing greatly because of the high profitability of these trees. However, the productivity varies widely depending on nutritional status, and it is therefore essential to identify the limiting nutrients. The aims of this study were (a) to identify the main nutrients limiting the growth and vitality of monoclonal poplar (Populus × euramericana) plantations and (b) to develop a means of early detection of nutrition-related problems in growth, based on visual crown conditions (crown transparency, VCT, and visual crown discoloration, VCD). The study was carried out in one of the most suitable areas for this species in Southern Europe. Thirty-two Populus × euramericana (clone I-214) stands displaying different levels of decline were selected for study, and tree growth, nutritional status (soil properties and foliar nutrient concentrations) and crown conditions were assessed. The stands, which were growing in soils with high contents of coarse fragments, displayed low growth rates, poor crown conditions and deficiencies in Fe, B, N, P, K, and to a lesser extent, Zn and Cu. The deficiencies increased with the age of the stand, presumably because of the higher nutrient demand in older trees. Visual crown conditions were related to growth rates and nutritional status. Predictive models were developed to relate crown conditions to the nutritional status identified by analysis of soil properties and foliar concentrations of nutrients. 相似文献

Iron chlorosis caused by an elevated soil pH remains an important selection criteria in evaluating hybrid Populus trials in northwest New Mexico. Compared to expensive extraction methods or visual ranking scales, the soil plant analysis
development (SPAD) chlorophyll meter is a handheld tool that objectively indicates leaf color. SPAD calibration curves pertaining
to Fe status in Populus leaves were developed for two clones: NM-6 (Populus nigra × Populus maximowiczii) and OP-367 (Populus deltoides × Populus nigra). Hybrids were grown in the greenhouse in a sandy loam soil of pH > 8 and the same soil amended with composted biosolids
enriched with 420 mg kg−1 Fe. SPAD measurements related to foliar Fe as follows: r
2 = 0.72 for NM-6 and r
2 = 0.58 for OP-367. SPAD measurements correlated with total chlorophyll as follows: r
2 = 0.66 for NM-6 and r
2 = 0.85 for OP-367. Based on the total chlorophyll content (supported with foliar element data), Fe sufficiency threshold
values from SPAD measurements were estimated in these two clones. 相似文献

The cutting seedlings ofLiriodendron chinense xtulipifera were treated with the different concentrations of auxin (treatment1: IBA of 50 g·kg−1+NAA of 300 g·kg−1; treatment2; IBA of 100 g·kg−1+NAA of 300 g·kg−1). The biomass nutrient element contents for different organs (root, stem, leaf) of cutting seedling ofLiriodendron chinense xtulipifera were measured by the dry method, Kjeldahl method and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy method. The result showed that the biomass
of root, stem, and leaf of the cutting seedling treated with auxin was all remarkably increased. The contents of element C
in root, stem and leaf had no significant difference between the control and auxin treatments, while the contents of N, P,
K and Ca in stem were much lower than that in leaf and root. Variance analysis showed that for the same organ with different
concentration treatment of auxin, the four nutrient elements (N, P, K, and Ca) had no significant difference in contents,
while there existed significant or very significant difference in contents of the four nutrient elements in different organs
with the same concentration auxin treatment. The N, P, K and Ca contents were very low in cutting seedlings; as a result,
additional fertilizer should be applied to the seedlings when they were planted in the field.

Genetic improvement of Eucalyptus genotypes for drought and frost resistance is essential for successful intensive management of commercial plantations. Understanding the physiological mechanisms that relate water use and frost resistance for highly deployed genotypes may allow for better prediction of their future performance, genetic selection and seedling management for site specific purposes. We studied whether instantaneous water use efficiency (WUE i ) may serve as drought, freezing and photoinhibition tolerance predictor by studying its response on six E. globulus clones (Eg1–Eg6) and four E. globulus × E. nitens hybrid seedlings (Egn1–Egn4) under drought and irrigated (control) treatments. Net photosynthesis (A) and transpiration (E) were studied using a gas exchange system in order to calculate WUE i (A/E). Simultaneous chlorophyll a fluorescence measurements were performed to assess the non photochemical quenching components. Frost tolerance of plants under control and drought treatments were evaluated by measuring temperatures that exert 50% photoinactivation of photosystem II. Finally, drought tolerance was evaluated by plant survival within each genotype after rehydration. Our results showed significant genotype variability in the rate of soil and xylem water potential decrease during drought. While most of the genotypes reached ?4.0 MPa in about 35 days of drought, genotypes Eg6 and Egn4 required 56 days of drought to reach this xylem water potential. WUE i exhibited significant differences among genotypes and irrigation treatments. Genotypes Eg5 and Egn4 increased their WUE i between 70 and 80% after drought. This was associated with a more conservative control of water loss at the stomatal level combined with maintenance of relatively higher rates of net photosynthesis than the other genotypes under drought conditions. Plants exposed to drought were more freezing tolerant than control plants, having in average 3°C lower LT50 than well irrigated ones. There was no a clear correlation between WUE i and drought tolerance or drought-induced photoinhibition, however WUE i was inversely correlated with LT50. Our results suggest that WUE i is not suitable by itself to select drought tolerant genotypes, but may provide evidence for discarding drought sensitive genotypes. In addition, it could provide valuable information to select for freezing tolerance. 相似文献

The field survival of Pinus patula seedlings in South Africa is frequently below acceptable standards. From numerous studies it has been determined that this is largely due to the pitch canker fungus, Fusarium circinatum. Other commercial pines, such as P. elliottii and P. taeda, show good tolerance to this pathogen and better survival, but have inferior wood properties and do not grow as well as P. patula on many sites in the summer rainfall regions of South Africa. There is, thus, an urgent need to improve the tolerance of P. patula to F. circinatum. Operational experience indicates that when P. patula is hybridized with tolerant species, such as P. tecunumanii and P. oocarpa, survival is greatly improved on the warmer sites of South Africa. Field studies on young trees suggest that this is due to the improved tolerance of these hybrids to F. circinatum. In order to test the tolerance of a number of pine hybrids, the pure species representing the hybrid parents, as well as individual families of P. patula × P. tecunumanii, a series of greenhouse screening trials were conducted during 2008 and 2009. The results indicated that species range in tolerance and hybrids, between P. patula and these species, are intermediate in tolerance to F. circinatum. Within P. patula × P. tecunumanii, large family variation exists when pollen from the high elevation source of P. tecunumanii is used. The results of these studies illustrate the importance of developing pine hybrid breeding programs to overcome the susceptibility of our pure species to pathogens such as F. circinatum. 相似文献

Conventionally, Eucalyptus grandis × E. urophylla (GU) hybrid material is first tested as seedlings in progeny trials for at least four years before ortets are selected and ramets of the selected ortets are propagated to test in clonal trials. The primary constraint with this ‘conventional hybrid breeding strategy’ (CHBS) is the time required to first test the hybrid material as seedlings. In order to address this, an ‘accelerated hybrid breeding strategy’ (AHBS) was investigated to reduce the time spent on testing GU hybrid material as seedlings. However, it is of utmost importance to quantify the impact the AHBS might have on genetic gains and genetic information. With this in mind, two clonal populations have been established with genetic material that derived from the CHBS and the AHBS. The main purpose of this study was to do a comparative study between the CHBS and AHBS, firstly to quantify the genetic gains per unit time for GU hybrid clonal populations that have been derived from the CHBS and AHBS respectively, and secondly to obtain genetic parameters such as heritabilities, the ratio of dominance, clonal within family variance, and the proportion of additive and non-additive genetic variance. The results indicated that the percentage realised volume gains per year was higher for the AHBS (3.7%) than for the CHBS (1.9%) when compared with the GU commercial clone. Thus, shortening the testing time of GU seedlings had a positive impact on volume gains per year. With regard to genetic parameters, both the AHBS and CHBS clonal populations indicated that non-additive genetic variation explained the majority (88% and 71%, respectively) of the genetic variation. Due to the pre-eminence of non-additive genetic variation, the narrow-sense heritabilties for the female and male effects were negligible for both clonal populations. Overall, the majority of the non-additive genetic variation was explained by the proportion of dominance variance, and less by the clone within family effect. These results suggest that, firstly, the time spent on testing GU hybrid material as seedlings should be minimised and, secondly, a hybrid breeding strategy to capture non-additive genetic variation should be adopted. 相似文献
