Abstract:
Panzhihua Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences introduced 18 local walnut clones and collected 10 local walnut planting clones from Dali of Yunnan province,then a collection orchard of walnut varieties was established in Puwei town by use of the grafting propagation mode. Through analysis of clonal saplings' tree height,diameter and branching of scion,the results showed that tree height repeatability was 0.57,the average diameter of scion repeatability was 0.72,the number of branches repeatability was 0.65. By multiple comparison, clones MH1, RH1, YH1, YH10, YH17, YH18, YH9, YH7 and YH16,their three growth indexes were significantly better than the other clones,the scion diameter or number of branches of them were significantly higher than the average of the index value,and the coefficient of variation was small. The initially screened 9 clones would be selected as the focus research and breeding objects of fine walnut clones.
