Abstract:

This study focused on the hybrid progeny of Betula pendula‘Purple Rain’from 20 five-year-old hybrid combinations,measuring traits such as growth,leaf color,and survival rate. The combining ability and effect values of these traits were analyzed using WinNCⅡsoftware. A comprehensive evaluation of the traits was conducted by applying the membership function method in conjunction with principal component analysis,leading to the selection of superior parents and hybrid combinations. Variance analysis revealed that traits such as ground diameter,leaf color,and survival rate showed significant(P < 0.05)or highly significant(P < 0.01)differences among the progeny families of different hybrid combinations. Variance analysis of combining ability effect values indicated that the variance of general combining ability(GCA)effect values for maternal traits was significant or highly significant,while only the variance of the paternal trait effect value for leaf color saturation(a*)was highly significant. The GCA analysis suggested that the additive effects of the maternal parent were generally greater than those of the paternal parent,with variance components ranging from 0.94% to 84.16%. The analysis of specific combining ability(SCA)effects showed that SCA had the strongest influence on a*,accounting for 82.30%. Based on the combining ability effect values for growth,leaf color,and survival rate traits in the hybrid progeny,M5 and M1-34 were selected as superior paternal parents,S3 as a superior maternal parent,and SZ-4 × M1 and S3 × M5 as superior hybrid combinations.

Key words: Betula, leaf color, growth trait, combining ability
