REPRODUCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF PINE (PINUS SYLVESTRIS L.) OF FINNISH ORIGIN ON THE SEED ORCHARD IN CONDITION OF VINNITSA REGION
Abstract
The adaptive ability of Finnish pine clones is analyzed and the most stable clones are identified which have a high re-productive capacity. The results of formation of macrostrobilus, microstrobilus and seed productivity of Finnish origin Scots pine on seed orchard in Vinnytsia region are presented. Intensity formation of reproductive organs in clones was investigated. The comparison of reproductive process in clones of Finnish origin and local population was made. We discovered clones of height seed productivity in 2016 in condition of Vinnytsia region. Displaying prospects for future investigation to assess adaptive capacity sibs offspring obtained from controlled pollination by pollen local and Finnish origins
