Abstract: |
– |
• We studied the differences in branch characteristics along the stems of six different genetic entries of 20 year old Scots
pines (Pinus sylvestris L.) grown at different spacing (current stand density range 2000–4000 trees ha−1) in central Finland. Furthermore, we studied the phenotypic correlations between yield, wood density traits and branch characteristics.
All the genetic entries had Kanerva pine (plus tree S1101) as a father tree, whereas the mother tree represented Finnish plus
trees from southern, central and northern Finland. |
