Genotypic stability and genetic parameters for growth and biomass trains in a water×temperature factorial experiment with Pinus sylvestris L. seedlings

摘要

The objective of this experiment was to study genotypic stability for growth and biomass traits recorded in treatments with optimal and limiting water availability at two different temperatures and to study how the different growth environments affected genetic parameter estimates. Open- pollinated families of Scots pine(Pinus sylvestris L.)were collected in 2 seed orchards with 28 and 35 families respectively and cultivated for 7 growth period in a growth chamber.
