Abstract:Abstracts:The preserving rates and growth amount of seven 7 year old families of Picea likiangensis var. hirtella,which seedling age is 3 years,were collected and analyzed.The results showed that the preserving rate and the growth amount of each of the seven families was quite different from the others.Compared with the other six families,the average tree height of the fine 7 year old family (pliki08xz001) was increased by 40.2%,the sprouting increased by 12.7%,the crown of current year increased by 19.3% and the preserving rate increased by 56.3%.
