Abstract Pine wilt disease is one of the most serious tree diseases occurring worldwide. Clones of Pinus densiflora Siebold et Zucc with pine wood nematode resistance were selected. In addition to resistance, wood quality is also an important criterion in the breeding program of P. densiflora because of its use as construction lumber. However, little information is available on the wood qualities of the progenies of resistant clones. The repeatabilities of the wood properties were investigated for 11 open-pollinated families of P. densiflora selected for their pine wood nematode resistance. Oven-dry density, latewood tracheid length, the microfibril angle (MFA) of the S2 layer in latewood tracheids, modulus of elasticity (MOE), and modulus of rupture (MOR) were measured in the third or fourth annual ring from the pith. No significant correlations were found between the wood properties and the stem diameter or tree height. However, significant correlations were found between oven-dry density and MOE or MOR, which suggests that oven-dry density is a good indicator for selecting wood with higher bending properties. Among the measured wood properties, oven-dry density had the highest repeatability (R=0.47), followed by MOR (R=0.33), tracheid length (R=0.21), and MFA (R=0.14). MOE had the lowest value (R=0.01). The 11 families examined were classified into three groups according to their growth characteristics, wood properties, and resistance to pine wilt disease. On the basis of the results, we conclude that genetic improvement of wood properties especially for wood density and MOR is possible for the resistant P. densiflora.

Abstract We investigated the clonal structure, self-incompatibility, and number of seeds per fruit in Camellia rusticana, a Japanese endemic species, in comparison to the closely related C. japonica. Clonal propagation was more vigorous in C. rusticana than in C. japonica and the clonal structure of C. rusticana varied among populations. C. rusticana can maintain genets for extended periods, even in harsh environments such as high-altitude areas with considerable snow accumulation, because even a single surviving genet can propagate clonally. However, sexual reproduction (i.e., reproduction by seed) is advantageous for dispersal to distant suitable habitats. An artificial crossing test revealed high self-incompatibility in C. rusticana, as observed in C. japonica. In addition, the number of seeds per fruit was lower in C. rusticana than in C. japonica. Self-incompatibility in C. rusticana may play a role in production of high-quality seed, despite low seed production.

Abstract Woody plants have been cultured in vitro since the 1930s. After that time much progress has been made in the culture of tissues, organs, cells, and protoplasts in tree species. Tree biotechnology has been making strides in clonal propagation by organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis. These regeneration studies have paved the way for gene transfer in forest trees. Transgenics from a number of forest tree species carrying a variety of recombinant genes that code for herbicide tolerance, pest resistance, lignin modification, increased woody bio-mass, and flowering control have been produced by Agrobacterium-mediated and biolistic methods, and some of them are undergoing confined field trials. Although relatively stable transgenic clones have been produced by genetic transformation in trees using organogenesis or somatic embryogenesis, there were also unintended unstable genetic events. In order to overcome the problems of randomness of transgene integration and instability reported in Agrobacterium-mediated or biolistically transformed plants, site-specific transgene insertion strategies involving clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR-Cas9) platform offer prospects for precise genome editing in plants. Nevertheless, it is important to monitor phenotypic and genetic stability of clonal material, not just under greenhouse conditions, but also under natural field conditions. Genetically modified poplars have been commercialized in China, and eucalypts and loblolly pine are expected to be released for commercial deployment in USA. Clonal forestry and transgenic forestry have to cope with rapid global climate changes in the future. Climate change is impacting species distributions and is a significant threat to biodiversity. Therefore, it is important to deploy Strategies that will assist the survival and evolution of forest tree species facing rapid climate change. Assisted migration (managed relocation) and biotechnological approaches offer prospects for adaptation of forest trees to climate change.

Abstract The total of 257 trees from the ten natural Siberian stone pine populations of West Siberian Plain, Ural Mountains and Kuznetsk Alatau were studied with the eight nuclear microsatellite loci. Differentiation of population groups indicates the possible existence of separate refugia in the past in the Urals and Kuznetsk Alatau. The northern populations of Western Siberia were characterized by a reduced level of genetic diversity, which could be a consequence of the founder effect in the process of P. sibirica migration from the southern regions of Western Siberia and the Urals since the end of the last glacial maximum. The genetic variability distribution among populations shows the uneven dynamics of Siberian stone pine migration from the zones of supposed refugia. The map of the proposed ways of Siberian stone pine migration from the zones of possible refugia was constructed, and it is in a good agreement with the results of palynological investigations.

Abstract The equatorial region of the world includes areas of Tropical Rainforest (Af) and Tropical Monsoon (Am) climate zones, which are distinguished by high temperatures and high rainfall, but soils which are often deficient. Potential productivity of plantation forestry in this area is high, and so are the pest and disease dangers which threaten it. This paper describes the Eucalyptus and Corymbia species which are adapted to this situation and also resistant to the main diseases like leaf blights. Based on the highly adapted E. biterranea and E. deglupta and several more, hybridization combined with vegetative propagation is discussed as an excellent alternative to obtain quick gains in short rotations while maintaining wide genetic diversity in such plantations. Management remedies are given for the possible backlash of quick soil depletion.

Abstract Genetic diversity and the optimal genetic composition are essential for the adaptability and adaptation of tree populations. Artificial regeneration of stands might reduce the genetic diversity and increase family structures if the seeds were collected from a limited number of mother trees. We did a genetic inventory in 12 pedunculate oak stands in Russia using a set of 366 nuclear gene markers (361 SNPs, 5 Indels) in order to look for differences in the genetic composition among natural and artificial stands. Our results did not reveal any systematic differences among both types of stands. However, we found two extreme cases of limited genetic diversity and increased proportion of full-sibs and half-sibs in urban man-made stands. The implications for the forestry and gene conservation programs were discussed.

Abstract Genetic variation is a major component of plant development and adaptation, and recent studies have shown that genetic variation among plant species can have important ecological effects. Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) is a dominant tree species in the Hyrcanian forests, where it occupies approximately 18 % of the forested area. In this study, nine expressed sequence tag simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers were used to determine the genetic diversity and structure of Iranian Oriental beech populations growing at different altitudes. We further compared the genetic structures of the Iranian populations to a F. orientalis and a Fagus sylvatica L. population from the hybrid zone of the two taxa in southeast Europe, and to a F. sylvatica population from central Europe. All populations showed a high genetic diversity, which was similar to other F. orientalis and F. sylvatica populations from Europe. The genetic differentiation among Iranian beech populations was very low. In contrast, distinct genetic differentiation was found between the Iranian populations and the analyzed European populations (F. orientalis and F. sylvatica). One EST-SSR was identified to differentiate (GST: 0.503) between F. orientalis and F. sylvatica with very pronounced allele frequency differences between taxa. Specifically, the Fagus sylvatica characteristic allele 189 was almost absent from all Iranian populations and present in low frequencies in F. orientalis populations from other regions. This study helps to extend the knowledge of genetic diversity and genetic structure of Iranian Oriental beech populations. It further gives insights into the genetic differentiation between F. orientalis populations from the center and the edge of the species’ distribution range as well as between Oriental and European beech.
遗传变异是植物发育和适应的重要组成部分，近年来的研究表明，植物物种间的遗传变异具有重要的生态效应。东方山毛榉(Fagus orientalis Lipsky)是海卡尼亚森林中的优势树种，约占森林面积的18%。本研究利用9个表达序列标签简单序列重复(EST-SSR)标记，对不同海拔生长的伊朗东方山毛榉群体的遗传多样性和结构进行了分析。我们进一步将伊朗居群的遗传结构与东南欧两个分类群杂交带的东方木和森林Fagus L.居群以及中欧的森林木居群进行了比较。所有居群均表现出较高的遗传多样性，与来自欧洲的东方木和森林木居群相似。伊朗山毛榉居群间的遗传分化很低。相比之下，伊朗种群与所分析的欧洲种群(F. orientalis和F. sylvatica)之间存在明显的遗传分化。鉴定出1个EST-SSR (GST: 0.503)可区分东方云杉和森林云杉，且类群间等位基因频率差异显著。具体而言，在伊朗所有种群中几乎不存在森林Fagus sylvatica特征等位基因189，而在其他地区的东方Fagus orientalis种群中存在频率较低。本研究有助于扩大对伊朗东方山毛榉居群遗传多样性和遗传结构的认识。进一步揭示了东方山毛榉分布范围中心和边缘种群之间以及东方山毛榉和欧洲山毛榉之间的遗传分化。

Abstract Mutational witches’ brooms (WB) spontaneously arise in the tree crown. There are no male cones in Pinus sibirica WB and pollination always occurs with normal pollen. We studied 2-year-old seed progeny obtained from open-pollinated cones of WB and normal crown (NC) pines. There were significant morphological differences in two pairs of WB and NC families, while the third family pair studied showed barely pronounced differences. Segregation analysis of WB seed progeny based on needle length (growth trait) and total bud number (branching trait) revealed that about half of seedlings had a normal phenotype, while mutants were from 15.6 to 35.7 %. The rest seedlings could not be unambiguously identified, because they have not yet fully demonstrated the phenotype. Looking normal seedlings from WB families differed not only from mutants but also from NC progeny. Therefore, the mutation had some effect on both mutant seedlings and seedlings with a normal phenotype. Moreover, the denser was maternal WB the more differences were observed between WB and NC progeny.

Abstract Forest companies prefer a coppice system as a silvicultural strategy owing to its economic and sustainability advantages compared to developing new plantations for second rotations. However, studies aiming to determine the selection of superior genetic material for this management strategy are scarce. In this study, we evaluated five clonal tests of Eucalyptus spp. located in Itatinga and Angatuba, São Paulo State, Brazil, to determine the genetic correlations and control of productivity for regrowth management in two rotations. The volume (m3) and survival of the Eucalyptus spp. clonal tests were determined for the two rotations at 5.5 years of age. The experiments were carried out in a randomized block design with six replicates, five plants per plot, and unbalanced treatments. The heritability in the normal scale ( h^n2 hat h_n^2 ) for the survival ranged from 0.056 to 0.11, the heritability in the broad sense ( h^g2 hat h_g^2 ) ranged from 0.205 to 0.334, and the genotypic correlation was positive and high (0.71-0.86), and statistically significant to the genetic means for the two rotations. The ranking of the best clones in the second rotation was similar (76 %) to their ranking in the first selection. Thus, for the evaluated material, there was no need for the second measurement to obtain accurate selection when managing a coppice system.
相对于开发新的二次轮作人工林，森林公司更倾向于将灌木林系统作为一种造林战略，因为它具有经济和可持续性优势。然而，旨在确定这种管理策略的优良遗传物质选择的研究很少。在这项研究中，我们评估了位于巴西圣保罗州Itatinga和Angatuba的桉树的5个克隆试验，以确定两个轮作管理的遗传相关性和生产力控制。在5.5岁时，测定了两轮桉树克隆试验的体积(m3)和存活率。试验采用随机区组设计，6个重复，每亩5株，不平衡处理。正常尺度遗传力(h^n2 hat h_n^2)在0.056 ~ 0.11之间，广义遗传力(h^g2 hat h_g^2)在0.205 ~ 0.334之间，基因型相关性为高正相关(0.71 ~ 0.86)，与遗传均值具有统计学显著性。在第二次轮换中，最佳无性系的排名与第一次选择时相似(76%)。因此，对于评估的材料，在管理coppice系统时不需要进行第二次测量以获得准确的选择。

We conducted three-generational (G0, G1, and G2) hybridization (diallel mating) and selection experiment and used Sequence-Related Amplified Polymorphism (SRAP). SRAP markers to investigate their utility in a MAS framework. The utilized SRAP markers were instrumental in hybrid authenticity and the identification of matroclinal or patroclinal inheritance presence, thus guiding mating pair selection and direction (their role as male or females). Across the studied 3 generations, estimates of genetic diversity parameters showed steady increase with percentage increase of ((G0 to G1 and G1 to G2) 9.25 and 9.05: observed number of alleles; 3.12 and 7.80: means effective number of alleles; 12.35 and 22.34: Nei‘s gene diversity; and 14.21 and 21.77: Shannon‘s index), indicating lack of diversity reduction associated with selection. Estimates of genetic distance and their correlation with heterosis were useful in guiding selection of mating pairs for achieving the desired yield and fruit attributes (fruit diameter, height, weight, and index, peel thickness, number of seeds per fruit, seed weight per fruit, and seed rate). Most yield and fruit attributes exhibited high broad-sense heritability with increasing trend over generation intervals, indicating the increased potential of hybrid breeding for this species.
