Table III

Correlations including standard errors of the relationship between average densities for all 10 annual rings (EDtot and LDtot), height growth (H01) and stem diameter (D01). Heritabilities (h2) along the emboldened diagonal, additive genetic correlation rA above the diagonal and environmental correlation rE below. In the right part is phenotypic variance (œ, genetic variance (œ, genetic coefficient of variation and the mean value. For EDtot and LDtot; data from the 370 trees with observations for all annual rings, for height and stem diameter; data from 1243 trees in total.
