Abstract
The objective of this study was to establish populations to start the breeding program of three species of Corymbia that are not widely planted in Brazil yet. To this end, basic density, bark content and growth of seedlots/provenances were evaluated three years after planting. The experiments consisted of 14 treatments for Corymbia citriodora subsp. variegata (CCV), 15 for C. maculata (CM), and five for C. henryi (CH). The species exhibited high survival, indicating adaptation to the Cwa climate while average coefficients of determination of seedlots exhibited intermediate values. The CCV from the Richmond Range (28o 55’ S) exhibited the highest productivity. The mean annual increment was low (22 to 26 m3ha-1), but the basic density (573 to 613 kg m-3) was high compared to the standard for eucalypts in Brazil. The bark content was close to 15% and varied between and within species.
期刊介绍:
The CBAB – CROP BREEDING AND APPLIED BIOTECHNOLOGY (ISSN 1984-7033) – is the official quarterly journal of the Brazilian Society of Plant Breeding, abbreviated CROP BREED APPL BIOTECHNOL.
It publishes original scientific articles, which contribute to the scientific and technological development of plant breeding and agriculture. Articles should be to do with basic and applied research on improvement of perennial and annual plants, within the fields of genetics, conservation of germplasm, biotechnology, genomics, cytogenetics, experimental statistics, seeds, food quality, biotic and abiotic stress, and correlated areas. The article must be unpublished. Simultaneous submitting to another periodical is ruled out. Authors are held solely responsible for the opinions and ideas expressed, which do not necessarily reflect the view of the Editorial board. However, the Editorial board reserves the right to suggest or ask for any modifications required. The journal adopts the Ithenticate software for identification of plagiarism.
