Abstract

Individual correlations between radial increments of trees and meteorological environmental factors were investigated in 28-year-old clone cultures of Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) growing at an experimental site of Forestry Institute, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, in the Sredneobskiy pine forest. Significant genotypic differences were revealed between the clones in the correlation coefficients of the indices of annual increments and the indices of increments of early and late wood with indicators of heat and moisture availability for trees in 1986–2007. Autocorrelation established a significant genetic differentiation of clones from one to three orders of magnitude.
