Provenance and family variation of Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis from Guatemala and Honduras, grown in Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela

Abstract: Index terms: pinus, selection criteria, genetic gain, heritability, breeding methods. Variação em procedências e famílias de Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis da Guatemala e Honduras, testadas no Brasil, Colômbia e VenezuelaResumo -Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis (Sénécl) Barr. & Golf. é uma espécie tropical que ocorre naturalmente nas terras baixas de Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicarágua e no leste do Méxi-co. Esta espécie tem sido uma das mais estudadas entre os pinos tropicais e uma das mais im… Show more

“…This is consistent with findings of [16]. The change in heritability in long rotation crops such as trees is not surprising since genes involved in growth may change with age [17], and these changes may be related to different growth phases [18]. In animals, this change in heritability with age was also attributed to the fact that the trait may change genetically with age [19] and is probably related to different growth phases as reported for trees.…”

“…The present results are consistent with the findings of other researchers [24][25][26][27] in different species. The increase in heritability for wood density from pith to bark is not surprising since genes may change with age [28]. Phenotypic variances for wood density decrease with age [27], hence strong genetic control for wood density increases from pith to bark.…”

“…hondurensis Barret & Golfari é originário da América Central e, em geral, apresenta crescimento superior entre os Pinus tropicais, com produção de 90 m 3 ha -1 a 120 m 3 ha -1 aos nove anos em sua região de origem (Evans, 1996), 93,39 m 3 ha -1 aos quatro anos e 369,36 m 3 ha -1 aos sete anos em povoamento no Estado do Espírito Santo (Kageyama & Caser, 1982), e volume médio individual de 0,23 m 3 árvore -1 aos 12 anos em plantios de diferentes procedências no Distrito Federal (Moura & Dvorak, 2001). Já o Pinus tecunumanii ocorre naturalmente no sul do México até a Nicarágua, onde os seus povoamentos alcançam produção de 300 m 3 ha -1 a 340 m 3 ha -1 aos 35 anos de rotação (Cordero & Boshier, 2003).…”
