Pedigree reconstruction and spatial analysis for genetic testing and selection in a Larix kaempferi (Lamb.) Carrière plantation

Abstract: Background Larix kaempferi is one of the major timber species in Northeast Asia. Demand for the reforestation of the species is rising in South Korea due to an increase in large timber production and utilization. However, progeny trials for the species have not been explored, making it challenging to foster advanced generations of tree improvement. In the present study, genetic testing and selection for diameter growth were conducted using pedigree reconstruction and phenotypic spatial distribu… Show more

“…This is a typical situation in breeding of species with long generation turnover, such as forest trees or some livestock animals. In these situations it could be more profitable to rather consider phenotypic profiles than individual traits with unclear connection to future breeding objective traits as diminishing age-age correlations reduces the response to selection [19, 41, 48]. As some traits are very expensive to measure, such as destructive sampling like meat quality traits in beef cattle [79], physiological traits in woody plants including fire-induced irreversible xylem damage and low temperature-induced tissue freezing [49], and wood (sawn timber) quality traits [26, 28], phenotype profiles could be measured and analysed with PCA to incorporate different types of traits jointly.…”
