Abstract:Abstracts:Growth analyses of progeny test of hybridization in Liriodendron were performed. The results indicated that the annual average increments of tree height, diameter at breath height (DBH) and stem volume of 5-year-old test plantation were 1.92m, 2.5cm, 0.0092m3, respectively.The fastest cross combination of growth was T11×C8,which annual average increment of tree height,DBH and stem volume were 2.39m, 3.4cm and 0.0183m3.There were significant differences in tree height, DBH and stem volume among cross combinations, which showed superior ones could be selected. The broad heritability of cross combination (family) for tree height, DBH, stem volume were 0.501,0.631 and 0.687,and the realized genetic gains reached 16.3%, 32.9% and 116.1% based on the selection of superior cross combinations. The comparison result of stem volume was T×C>C×T>open pollination of T >open pollination of C>C×C>T×S. The heterosis rates of T11×C8, T12×C8 and C9×T12 were 108.7%, 64.3% and 110.7%.
