By: G. Hodge n, W. Dvorak n, H. Uruena* & L. Rosales

author keywords: genetic correlation; heritability; coefficient of relationship; genotype x environment interaction; additive variance; dominance variance; tree improvement
TL;DR: Ten provenance/progeny tests of Bombacopsis quinata were established in Venezuela and Colombia using open-pollinated seed collected from throughout its natural range using seed from crosses made in a second-generation seed orchard, with average survival of all tests approximately 80%, with the local source from Colombia having slightly better survival in Colombia.
