- Title
Genetic variation in drought hardiness of coastal Douglas-fir seedlings from British Columbia .
- Authors
Anekonda, T. S.; Lomas, M. C.
- Abstract
Investigates genetic variation in drought hardiness traits and their genetic correlations with growth potential and recovery traits in 39 full-sib families of coastal Douglas-fir in southwestern British Columbia. Method; Traits assessed; Findings; Conclusion that potential exists for identifying drought-hardy families at the seedling stage and using this information for deployment or breeding purposes; Suggestion that drought hardiness could be improved without negatively impacting growth potential.
