Abstract:Abstracts:The preservation rate and growth of the half sib family test forest after one year of Larix kaempferi was investigated and analyzed in this paper,the early performance of different families was compared.The average preservation rate of test forest was 98.4%,the average ground diameter and height increment were 8.06 mm,59.10 cm.The results showed that there were extremely significant differences on preservation rate and growth in different families. The half sib families growth from seed orchard were superior to half-sib families from seed stand and artificial forest.The best families were 11,16,18 and 25.
