grapes are among the world most planted horticultural crops. since the last century, attempts have been made to improve the quality of grapes in the world. meanwhile, the necessity of having knowledge about the history of progenies families led to the link between genealogy and breeding. considering some previous mislabeling, in order to find out the accuracy of the controlled crosses as well a...

Abstract Using microsatellite loci, we assessed the mating system and genetic diversity of dioecious tropical tree Genipa americana in a natural population (NP) progeny test (PT). For NP, also estimated paternity correlation within among fruits mean pollen dispersal distance. As expected for species, all offspring originated from outcrossing ( t = 1). Mating relatives (1 − s ) r p were variable...

Pistacia atlantica is the most important tree species for the economy of many rural areas in west of Iran, but no effort has been made for the genetic improvement of this species. The aim of this investigation was to study the genetic variation and inheritance of early growth traits in P. atlantica. For this purpose, three wild pistachio populations comprising 60 randomly selected adult trees f...

Twenty five plus trees of dek were selected from agro-climatic regions Haryana, Punjab and Uttrakhand. The on the basis different characters economic importance viz. straightness, clear bole height, self-pruning ability, acute branch angle etc. Among all maximum tree height was observed in MC21 (17.9 m) whereas, minimum MC3 (6.5 m). girth at breast (gbh) varied 60.9 to 180.8 cm recorded highest...
