Abstract:The ecological significance of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Europe, especially in areas devastated by bark beetles, has led to its consideration as a substitute for Norway spruce. This pioneering species boasts sun and drought tolerance, fast growth, and wood industry value. To gauge its potential, we examined two ecotypes across two test sites over two years, focusing on height and growth increment. Through statistical analysis employing R software and linear mixed models, we assessed heritability, gen… Show more
