英文摘要 | Cork oak is an important forest tree species in the Western Mediterranean region due to the high economic value of its renewable cork and its ecological and social services. However, studies regarding the genetic variation within cork oak populations are scarce, and this gap of knowledge is contributing to the delay of the set-up of a breeding and conservation strategy for the species. In this study, the genetic variation in fitness (survival, height, and stem diameter) and plant architecture traits (apical dominance, stem straightness, stem inclination degree, branchiness), and tree vigor was evaluated among and within cork oak populations in two progeny field trials established in Portugal. Measurements were carried out in each trial in two different periods: ages 9 and 14 years at Monte da Fava trial and 8 and 14 years at Herdade da Caniceira trial. A significant genetic variation among and within cork oak populations was detected for survival, growth, and form traits (stem straightness and inclination). Growth traits presented high values of heritability estimates at the family mean level (≥0.75), and genetic gains were obtained when families with superior growth were selected. Additionally, results highlighted that early selection of families with superior performance could be performed, and it is possible to achieve improvement in both growth and form traits simultaneously, with implications on the profitability and sustainability of cork oak stands. © 2020 Elsevier B.V. |
