Screening of Ginkgo Individuals with Superior Growth Structural Characteristics in Different Genetic Groups Using Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) Data.

ABSTRACT: With the concept of sustainable management of plantations, individual trees with excellent characteristics in plantations have received attention from breeders. To improve and maintain long-term productivity, accurate and high-throughput access to phenotypic characteristics is essential when establishing breeding strategies. Meanwhile, genetic diversity is also an important issue that must be considered, especially for plantations without seed source information. This study was carried out in a ginkgo timber plantation. We used simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for genetic background analysis and high-density terrestrial laser scanning for growth structural characteristic extraction, aiming to provide a possibility of applying remote sensing approaches for forest breeding. First, we ana
