Genetic variation in shoot-growth patterns of Douglas-fir populations from southwest Oregon

Creator:

Kaya, Zeki

Abstract:

This study had three objectives: (1) to teat the hypothesis that multiple flushing of the terminal shoot (intermittent growth pattern) in Douglas-fir seedlings (Pseudotsuca menziesii var. menziesii) has an adaptive significance, especially in inland populations from the drier regions in southwest Oregon; (2) to evaluate the genetic and adaptive consequences...
