Other claims from this paper (5)
- Association Seed and cone morphology had higher heritability and genetic advance than tree growth traits.
- Association Seed roundness and aspect ratio correlated significantly with progeny growth.
- Association Juvenile diameter correlated with mature height and diameter at 60 months.
- Association Seed two-dimensional surface area had strong direct and indirect effects on diameter at 60 months.
- Recommendation The authors recommend selecting seed sources or grading seeds by weight, size or shape to obtain better progeny.
