Experimental Design
– Randomization
• Clonal hedges were completely randomized on the hedge pad prior to setting
• Fixed-tray system (135 cells)
• Trays could then be randomized within each rep
![Page 11: CCLONES - ADEPT ( Comparing Clonal Lines On Experimental Sites)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070417/5681540c550346895dc20a38/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Clonal hedges were randomized in April 2001.

Field Locations
• Six Locations in FL and GA
• Design at each location:– 2 silvicultural treatments (HI and LO)
– 4 complete blocks per treatment; alpha-lattice
– Total of 8 ramets per clone (2 x 4) per site
– 915 clones from 60 FS families
– Total size approx 14 acres
– Total trees: 6 sites x 2 trts x 4 blocks x 915 clones = 44,000
• Three settings: Jan, May and July– Jan setting used for 0 - 1 site
– May setting used for 3 sites
– July setting used for 1-2 sites
• Field planting in Dec 2002

Phenotyping of Association Pop’n• Rooting
– May and July 2001
– Jan and April 2002
• Disease symptoms– Rust and PC in RSC
– Rust in HI and LO treatments in field
• Standard growth:1, 2, 3 height in HI and LO
• Water deficit symptoms: 2 of 6 sites; 600 clones– Stable carbon isotopes at end of 1st season
– Specific leaf area
– Relative water content – two dry periods
– Water potential – two dry periods
• Other????

Disease Screening
• 1400 clones from May and July setting sent to RSC– 22,000 rooted cuttings
– 5 to 20 ramets per clone
– Good rooting clones with approx equal numbers per family
• Four groups (with 5 or less ramets per clones)– Group 1: Rust with broad inoculum
– Group 2: Rust with narrow inoculum
– Group 3: PC with RSC protocols
– Group 4: PC with UF protocols
– Each group in 5 blocks with 1 ramet per clone; varying #’s of clones
• Measure phenotypes (disease symptoms):– 1400 clones
– Two very different pathosystems
