Summary: | Hop Hornbeam (Ostrya carpinifolia Scop.) seedlings from 45 half-sib lines,
from three provenances were analyzed. Intra-population variability between
half-sib lines was found for morphological attributes of two-year seedlings.
In this sense, maternal (seed) trees with the greatest potential for the
production of reproductive material may be selected. Interpopulation
variability between provenances was found for morphological and physiological
attributes, except for the height and dry mass of the two-year seedlings. The
influence of half-sib lines and provenances on the concentration of the
studied nutrients should be further examined in a larger number of samples.
Despite its large potential, Hop Hornbeam is not used for afforestation in
Serbia. In those terms, we should work to change attitudes in the selection
of the common types of reforestation species. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke
