The effects of clonal variability, crown position of cones, and top-pruning of ramets to reduce height growth, on 1) the proportion of viable self-fertilized progeny (s) and 2) the proportion of filled seeds (PF), were investigated in a 20 year-old Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.1 Franco) seed orchard.
