El programa de mejora genética gallego Pinus pinaster iniciado en los años 80 por el Centro Investigación Forestal Lourizán, actualmente está centrado principalmente la resistencia al nematodo Bursaphelechus xylophilus, patógeno presente España desde 2008. Entre diversos estudios realizados para determinar inclusión como carácter selección programa, se evaluó virulencia cepas distintos países, resultando ser cepa detectada Galicia 2010 una las más agresivas y, tanto, utilizada ensayos...
The installation of research or permanent plots is a very common task in growth and forest yield research. At young ages, tree height the most commonly measured variable, so location individuals necessary when repeated measures are taken if spatial analysis required. Identifying coordinates individual trees re-measuring all difficult particularly costly (in time money). data used comes from three Pinus pinaster Ait. radiata D. Don plantations 0.8 ha, with an age ranging between 2 5 years...
PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Plants have developed mechanisms to withstand stressful environmental conditions, but the high energetic cost of these may involve exchanges with other key functions. While trade‐offs between cold hardiness and growth rates are a general assumption, we lack information regarding genetically based life‐history traits. Such has strong implications for tree conservation breeding, especially in context ongoing climate change. METHODS: We used common garden progeny test...
