Table 6 Multivariate analysis of height, terminal shoot length, and the number of flushes. Additive genetic correlations between traits are in the upper diagonal, family variances are in the diagonal, and co-heritability (\({r}_{A}{h}_{x}{h}_{y}\)) estimates are in the lower diagonal of the table. Tree height had a strong additive genetic correlation with terminal shoot length while the correlation with the number of flushes was moderate
Traits | Height | Terminal shoot length | Number of flushes |
|---|---|---|---|
Height | 29.01 | 0.96 ± 0.016 | 0.59 ± 0.086 |
Shoot length | 0.14 | 4.16 | 0.64 ± 0.082 |
Number of flushes | 0.09 | 0.08 | 1.38 |
