To determine the genetic structure of marginally located populations of Pinus nigra var pallasiana, seedlings of open pollinated families from 7 populations were raised in Kizilcahamam nursery near Ankara for 2 years. Seed weight (SW) and cone weight (CW) for families, number of cotyledon per seedling (GOT), timing of bud set in 1990 (BS90) and in 1991 (BS91), bud burst timing of seedlings in 1991 (BB91), height growth in 1991 (HT90) and final height growth in 1991 (HT91) and final diameter growth of seedlings (DM91) were recorded. Among the traits studied, the component of genetic variation attributed to regions (ranging from 0% to 5.7% of the total variation) and populations (ranging from 0% to 9%) made up very small portion of the total genetic variation while variation among the families within population was very high (ranging from 11.5% to 91.5%). The estimated family heritabilities were moderately high for the most of the traits, ranging from 0.28 for BB91 to 0.98 for SW. Correlations between seedling traits and topographic variables were not significant, suggesting that effects of aspect, slope and altitude on genetic differentiation of population are minor. In general, phenotypic and genetic correlations between seedling traits were generally the same sign and magnitude, however, genetic correlations between height growth and bud set timing were strongly negative (-0.54).

Genetic variation in wood specific gravity of half-sib families of Pinus nigra subsp pallasiana tested at the juvenile stage: Implications for early selection Kaya, Zeki; Temerit, A; Vurdu, H (2003-01-01) Seeds from 7 populations (total of 281 half-sib families, progeny test) and 35 seed stands (provenance test) representing natural range of Anatolian black pine (Pinus nigra subsp. pallasiana) were sown in a forest nursery in Ankara in 1990 and raised until age 3. Stem wood specific gravity (WSG) of all seedlings was determined at age of 3. The results of this study indicated that WSG did not vary significantly neither among the 7 populations (ranging from 0.41 to 0.42) nor among 35 seed stands (ranging from...
Genetic structure of black pine (Pinus nigra ARNOLD subspecies pallasiana) populations sampled from the Bolkar Mountains Tolun, AA; Velioğlu, E; Çengel, Burcu N; Kaya, Zeki (2000-01-01) In order to determine the magnitude and pattern of genetic diversity among Anatolian Black pine (Pinus nigra ARNOLD subspecies pallasiana) populations sampled in Bolkar Mountains and to recommend the potential populations which may be suitable for in situ conservation of genetic resources in this species, isoenzymes from 14 enzyme systems were investigated by starch gel electrophoresis. For this reason, open pollinated seed megagametophytes of half-sib families originated from the four populations (Camliyay...
Genetic variation pattern among Abies cilicica (Pinaceae) populations: Adaptive seed and seedling traits Gülsoy, Ali Murat; Doğan, Musa; Department of Biology (2022-9-12) The pattern of genetic variation in adaptive seed and seedling traits of Abies cilicica was investigated using 160 families from 8 populations representing the species' natural range for two years in the Olcay Forest Nursery in Konya. The study indicated that both populations and families within populations varied significantly in seed and seedling traits. The pattern of genetic variation among populations suggests that there may be a clinal variation concerning altitude and latitude regarding these traits....
Genetic and physiology of cold and drought resistance in Turkish red pine (Pinus brutia, Ten.) populations from southern Turkey Kandemir, Gaye Eren; Kaya, Zeki; Önde, Sertaç; Department of Biology (2002) The purpose of the study was to determine the pattern of genetic variation in morphological and physiological traits associated with cold and drought stress using seedling from over-exploited and natural populations of Pinus brutia Ten. (Turkish red pine) from southern Turkey. To determine the pattern of genetic variation existing in over-exploited and natural populations, seedlings from 6 populations each with 40 families were raised in Ankara forest nursery from 1998-2000. Three of the populations (Yaylaa...
The pattern of genetic variation in shoot growth of Pinus brutia Ten. populations sampled from the Toros mountains in Turkey Kaya, Zeki (1997-01-01) The pattern of genetic variation in shoot growth of Turkish red pine (Pinus brutia TEN.) was studied in 180 open-pollinated families from a south to north transect in southern Turkey. Seedlings from 1 coastal, 1 inland and 2 centrally located populations (45 open-pollinated families each) were grown for 2 growing seasons in a forest nursery located near Antalya. The study revealed that both populations and families within populations varied significantly in all seedling traits except for free growth in the ...
