(1992) thoughtfully evaluated the application of molecular markers in forest tree breeding for marker aided selection. The purpose of their paper was to emphasize the limitations and shortcomings of marker-aided selection particularly in conifers. They argued that studies of quantitative trait loci identified in agronomic crops, which have significant utility (e.g. Stuber, 1992; Stuber et al., 1992), are of little relevance to assessing the potential for marker aided selection in populations of forest trees, and that the near term usefulness of molecular markers for forest tree breeding will be limited. The major barriers to application included cost, the lack of association of markers with traits across breeding populations due to linkage equilibrium, variation in expression of loci affecting quantitative traits due to differences in genetic background, genotype environment interactions, and stability of marker-trait associations over multiple generations. In addition, Strauss et al. (1992) noted that marker-aided selection would be most useful for within family selection, where the economic values of the traits are high, the trait heritabilities are low, and where markers are able to explain much of the genetic variance. However, they argued that important traits in forest trees such as wood volume, are likely to be controlled by large numbers of genes with small effects, and therefore, are unlikely to have useful marker trait associations.}, booktitle={Genomes of Plants and Animals: 21 Stadler Genetics Symposium}, publisher={Plenum Press, NY}, author={O'Malley, D.

Estimates of nuclear (2C) DNA content for the species surveyed ranged from 0.77 pg/2C for Eucalyptuscitriodora Hook. (subgenus Corymbia) to 1.47 pg/2C for Eucalyptussaligna Smith (subgenus Symphyomyrtus). This range corresponds to a haploid genome size range of 370–700 megabase pairs. The average physical equivalent of a 1 cM distance could be as low as 200 kilobase pairs in Eucalyptus, an attractive feature for positional cloning efforts in woody plants. The closer the species were in phylogenetic relationship the more similar were their nuclear DNA content values. All the interspecific hybrids surveyed displayed a nuclear DNA content in the expected intermediate range between the respective parental species, with the exception of one originating from Rio Claro, Brazil, whose exact parentage is unknown. No evidence of polyploidy was observed in any of the hybrids. The flow cytometry procedure employed in this study is an efficient method for investigating ploidy levels of high yielding hybrids of Eucalyptus. }, number={5}, journal={CANADIAN JOURNAL OF FOREST RESEARCH}, author={GRATTAPAGLIA, D and BRADSHAW, HD}, year={1994}, month={May}, pages={1074–1078} } @inproceedings{grattapaglia_chaparro_wilcox_mccord_crane_amerson_werner_liu_o'malley_whetten_et al._1993, title={Application of genetic markers to tree breeding}, booktitle={Proceedings of the 22nd Southern Forest Tree Improvement Conference}, author={Grattapaglia, D. and Chaparro, J. and Wilcox, P. and McCord, S. and Crane, B. and Amerson, H. and Werner, D. and Liu, B.
