Abstract:Abstracts:In this study,leaf traits of 100 different Catalpa bungei germplasms,which has been collected and conserved in Xiangyang Catalpa bungei germplasm resource bank in Hubei Province were investigated and analyzed.The result showed that leaf petiole length of different clones showed greater variation than their leaf width and length.There were abundant variation and great significant differences among the traits of leaf length,leaf width and leaf petiole length of the 100 different germplasms.Genetic parameters were also estimated; except the leaf length of germplasm from Shandong,the leaf width and the leaf petiole length of germplasm from Anhui,the leaf traits of different germplasms from Hubei,Henan,Shandong and Anhui provenance showed significant differences. The estimated repeatability of the leaf width-length ratio was 60% which was the highest,and that of leaf length was 46.17% which was the second.
