Mortality in Dalbergia sissoo (roxb.) following heavy infection by Aristobia horridula (hope) bettles. Will genetic variation in susceptibility play a role in combating declining health?
2005-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Genetic variation in mortality was studied by comparing survival of 70 progenies of Dalbergia sissoo originating from different parts of Nepal. The analysis was based on their performance in a so-called seedling seed orchard (SSO) that was heavily infested by Aristobia horridula Hope; a beetle that has become a sever pest infesting and killing young trees in sissoo plantings. Large and highly significant differenc...
