Abstract excerpt
A large full-sib family of radiata pine ( Pinus radiata Donn. ex D. Don) was used for quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection and independent verification. QTL detection experiments were carried out for juvenile wood density (JWD) and stem diameter at breast height (DBH) using selective genotyping. Evenly spaced RFLP and microsatellite markers were selected from an existing linkage map. QTLs were verified in an...
