| Abstract: | • Introduction
Multi-varietal forestry (MVF) is the deployment of tested tree varieties in plantation forestry. Computer simulation using
POPSIM Simulator identified optimal combination of numbers of families, varieties per family and ramets per variety (nf, nc
and nr, respectively) yielding the largest genetic gain for a specific status number (NS) in a varietal test (VT) intended
for MVF of conifers. |
