The genetic improvement of Gmelina arborea. a native of north-eastern India was investigated. A tota1 60 plus trees of G. arl Jorta were selected from the states of Assam Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram using point grading method of selection. Superiority of these plus trees over the comparison trees was 18.77 20.68 and 46.48 for height girth at breast height (gbh) and clear bole height (cbh) respectively. Plus trees selected from the state of Arunachal Pradesh showed maximum improvement for gbh (1.52)and cbh (67.28) whereas plus trees from Mizoram attained maximum improvement for height (25.22).

Abstract

The genetic improvement of Gmelina arborea. a native of north-eastern India was investigated. A tota1 60 plus trees of G. arl Jorta were selected from the states of Assam Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram using point grading method of selection. Superiority of these plus trees over the comparison trees was 18.77 20.68 and 46.48 for height girth at breast height (gbh) and clear bole height (cbh) respectively. Plus trees selected from the state of Arunachal Pradesh showed maximum improvement for gbh (1.52)and cbh (67.28) whereas plus trees from Mizoram attained maximum improvement for height (25.22).
