“…Non-curly birches are usually removed from the stand at the age of about 10-13 years 3 to provide genuine curly trees with sufficient space and light. For this cleaning, a non-destructive visual assessment of curliness is commonly used 12 . However, even at this age, tinning often encounters a problem, since detecting curliness by indirect morphological features of trees is rather difficult.…”

Curly (Karelian) birch is a special variety ofBetula penduladistributed in the northwestern part of Europe. Karelian birch is well-known for its valuable figured curly wood also known as “wooden marble”. The genetic basis underlying curly wood formation has been debated since last century, however, there was no data about loci responsible for the curly wood trait. In the present study, we analyzed two full-sibs populations derived from experimental crosses of curly birches and segregating for the trait. RADseq genotyping was applied to reveal how many loci are involved in ‘curliness’ formation and to search for genetic variants associated with this trait. One single interval on chromosome 10 was detected containing possible candidate genes. InDel marker BpCW1 was suggested for the first time for marker-assisted selection of trees with curly wood at their earliest stages of development.

“…Throughout the long history of studying Karelian birch, various hypotheses have been suggested regarding the nature of the factors that determine curly wood 12–14 . The heritability of the trait, though, is acknowledged by most researchers.…”
