Table 5 Estimates of individual-tree narrow-sense heritability (h2), broad-sense heritability (H2), half-sib and full-sib family mean heritabilities (\( {H}_{\overline{\mathrm{HS}}}^2 \) and \( {H}_{\overline{\mathrm{FS}}}^2 \)), and clone mean heritability for different traits measured in four full-sib clonal trials
