Exploring genotype-by-environment interactions: impacts on genome-wide association and genomic prediction for 30 white spruce traits related to productivity, defense, and climate-adaptability
(North American Forest Genetics Society, 2024-06-10)White spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) is considered a keystone species in boreal forest ecosystems and a valuable resource for the commercial timber industry. White spruce is also known for its adaptability to diverse ... -
Increment coring induced traumatic resin ducts in white spruce but not in lodgepole pine
(2020-01-30)Injury from sampling increment cores may induce defense responses in trees, which may vary between species and reflect differing defense allocation strategies against attack by insects and pathogens. We recorded presence ... -
Integrating genomic information and productivity and climate-adaptability traits into a regional white spruce breeding program
(Plos ONE, 2022-03)Tree improvement programs often focus on improving productivity-related traits; however, under present climate change scenarios, climate change-related (adaptive) traits should also be incorporated into such programs. ... -
Optimizing a regional white spruce tree improvement program: SNP genotyping for enhanced breeding values, genetic diversity assessment, and estimation of pollen contamination
(MDPI, 2023-11-01)The utilization of genotyping has gained significant popularity in tree improvement programs, aiding in enhancing the precision of breeding values, removing pedigree errors, the assessment of genetic diversity, and evaluating ...
