Development of Differential Screening Panels for Slash Pine-Fusiform Rust Reaction Types
(2003)Understanding the genetic basis for disease resistance is crucial to ensure a successful breeding and deployment strategy for slash pine. A complementary genetic interaction model has been hypothesized for the pine-fusiform ... -
Evaluation of an Open-Nucleus Model for Forest Tree Breeding
(2003)Open-nucleus breeding was evaluated by stochastic simulation. Methodology was developed for unrestricted migration rate between two tiers (main and elite). Genetic progress in the breeding population was iteratively maximized ... -
Genetic Variation of Juvenile Wood Properties in a Loblolly Pine Diallel Test
(2003)The reduced rotation age for loblolly pine plantations has resulted in an increased percentage of juvenile wood. Juvenile wood has lower wood density, shorter tracheid length and higher lignin content than mature wood. The ... -
Top Grafting Longleaf x Slash Pine F1 Hybrids on Mature Longleaf and Slash Pine Interstocks
(2003)Top grafting is used to accelerate the breeding cycle of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L). Scions, collected from seedlings as young as 1 year from seed, are grafted onto mature interstocks of the same or a related species. ... -

Complementary Pairs Interaction of Resistance Genes and Avirulent Genes in Loblolly Pine: Fusiform Rust Pathosystem Using Diallel Data
(2003)Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seedlings from 12 full-sib families were obtained from a 6-parent half diallel mating design. These seedlings were challenged using two inocula of the fusiforn rust fungus( Cronartium quercuum ... -
Efficacy of Breeding for Brown Spot Disease Resistance in Longleaf Pine
(2003)The study objective was to determine whether selection for brown spot disease (caused by Scirrhia acicola (Dearn.) Siggers) resistance in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) is beneficial for areas where brown spot is ... -

Pioneering Tree Improvement in Oklahoma
(2003)The pioneering tree improvement work in Oklahoma started in 1965 when Clayton Posey moved from Auburn University to Oklahoma State University. Clayton was hired by Glen Durrell (Department Head) to fill a teaching/research ... -
Volume Gains of Rooted Loblolly Pine Clones at Age 10 in Florida and Alabama
(2003)An estimate of the growth potential of clonal lines produced from elite crosses compared to trees grown from seed is needed to justify clonal forestry programs. A series of age 10 loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) rooted ... -
Antibiotics Effects on the Elimination of Agrobacterium tumefaciens from Loblolly Pine (Pinus taeda L.) Zygotic Embryo Explants and on Transgenic Plant Regeneration
(2003)Three antibiotics were evaluated for their effects on the elimination of Agrobacterium tumefaciens during the genetic transformation of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) using mature zygotic embryos as targets. Agrobacterium ... -
Field Selection of American Sweetgum Transformed for Herbicide Resistance
(2003)One American sweetgum clone from an open-pollinated parent was transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing the gene for acetolactate synthase (ALS), and regenerated through organogenesis. Seventy independently ... -
Characterization of a Bacterial Contaminant in Loblolly Pine Tissue Culture
(2003)Bacterial contamination of immature seed explants can decrease the efficiency in initiating and establishing pine embryogenic cultures. A type of contaminant commonly observed surrounding the megagametophyte explant of ... -
Slash and Loblolly Pine Productivity on Reclaimed Titanium Mined Lands in Northeast Florida
(2003)Titanium mining often occurs on forestlands that previously supported productive pine plantations. The productivity of reclaimed mined lands is uncertain, based on observations that tree height on reclaimed lands is less, ...
