1999 journal article

Evidence for an extreme bottleneck in a rare Mexican pinyon: Genetic diversity, disequilibrium, and the mating system in Pinus maximartinezii

EVOLUTION, 53(1), 91–99.

By: F. Ledig*, M. Conkle*, B. Bermejo-Velazquez*, T. Eguiluz-Piedra*, P. Hodgskiss*, D. Johnson*, W. Dvorak n

author keywords: endangered species; isozymes; linkage disequilibrium; outcrossing; rarity
TL;DR: Mating system analysis indicated a significant but low level of selling; the multilocus outcrossing rate, tm, was 0.816; the mean of single locus estimates, ts, was smaller, perhaps suggesting mating among relatives, although the difference between tm and ts was not statistically significant.

Provenance and family variation in Sterculia apetala in Colombia

FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 111(2-3), 127–135.

By: W. Dvorak*, H. Uruena, L. Moreno & J. Goforth

author keywords: dry zone; provenance variation; wood specific gravity
TL;DR: Leaf initiation and leaf fall occurred in the introduced Central American sources earlier than in the local Colombian provenance and their timing appeared partly out of phase with the onset of the wet and dry seasons. (via Semantic Scholar)

author keywords: pine; breeding; selection; genetic gain; heritability; interspecific variation
TL;DR: Comparison of results from this test with other CAMCORE P. oocarpa trials in Colombia and Venezuela suggest that both provenance×site and family×site interactions can be of biological importance. (via Semantic Scholar)

FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 83(1-2), 123–131.

By: W. Dvorak n, J. Kietzka* & J. Donahue n

author keywords: adaptability; hybrids; drought tolerance; cold tolerance
TL;DR: Trees of P. greggii from sources in northern Mexico were less than half as tall as trees from provenances in central Mexico when established in warm climates of Brazil and Colombia, and trees from northern sources had shorter, stiffer, needles of darker green color than those from southern provenances.
