description | <p>The mating system parameters were studied in a natural stand and in a seed orchard of the Balkan endemic, Pinus peuce Griseb. by<br />means of isozyme gene markers. The results indicate that the multilocus estimates of the outcrossing rates are low relative to other<br />widespread conifers but concord to these reported for other pine species with limited area of distribution. No significant differences<br />were detected between the natural stand and the seed orchard estimates. Multilocus estimates of outcrossing rate were within the range<br />0.77-0.79, while mean single-locus estimates were lower (0.69-0.73). The results indicate that at least 20% of the progeny of Pinus peuce<br />is due to self-fertilization. Possible reasons for the results observed and the implications for tree breeding and gene conservation are discussed.</p> |
