Key message Multivariate mixed models can be used to combine complex data into a single-step analysis to improve prediction accuracy of open-pollinated seed lots for all attributes and candidates, and identify elite seed lots. Context Data available for genetic selection may be complex and unbalanced; however, utilisation of all available information for prediction of genetic value may improve prediction...
Key messageA model of wood formation processes in pines predicted 80% of mean wood density variation from inputs of carbohydrate allocation and tree water status from several varied sites. Abstract Numerous factors determine how wood properties vary as a tree grows. In order to model wood formation, a framework that considers the various xylogenetic processes is required. We describe a new...
In eucalypt plantations managed for solid-wood products, radial trends in wood density, microfibril angle (MFA) and stiffness (modulus of elasticity, MoE) are properties of potential commercial importance that can be affected by competition from neighbouring trees. In this study, wood properties at breast height (1.3 m) were studied on radial strips prepared from 12-mm pith-to-bark wood cores taken...
