简介:我们比较了在处于Karnataka的状态种区域的三棵宽广柚木从三个种子生产区域(矿泉)和柚木(TectonagrandisL.f)的三个相应未耕过的看台(UIS)获得的子孙的词法、基因的属性,印度。一般来说,播种象种子重量,种子尺寸和种子空虚那样的词法参数在与UIS相比的矿泉是显著地优异的。种子萌芽百分比在从矿泉的种子也是更高的。在二每月的间隔测量六个月的幼苗性能被观察在在比较的三个区域中的二个的矿泉优异。尽管矿泉的子孙的基因差异根本比UIS低区域,价值中等高。当差异索引否定地每种子与水果重量,水果直径和核重量被相关时,萌芽百分比断然每种子与水果重量和核重量被相关。矿泉没有对未来种植园的基因差异的严重威胁作为中等改进的种的材料的来源证明重要。
