Evaluation of plus and the best oak trees by their 20 years old progenies growth and development

Abstract

Results of the best and plus oak trees progeny evaluation based on the observation of 20 years old progeny tests in State Enterprise “Hutyanske Forest Economy” are presented. A method of comprehensive assessment of plus trees by the growth and development of their progenies is proposed. Investigated progenies of best and plus trees were divided into 4 groups. The perspective trees have been identified to create clonal seed orchards of second level. The correlations between indexes of trees’ growth and development were determined for the age of 2, 5, 10 and 20 years.
