Book Description
Analyses of 43 blue spruce populations at age 12 (9 years in the field) revealed significant differences among populations for survival, height, vigor, crown diameter, frost injury, and foliage color. Use of regions increases the probability of locating better seeds sources, but high variability among individual populations within regions limits their value in specifying where better seed sources can be collected. Phenotypes should be selected in best stands within regions.

Book Description
Excerpt from Genetic Variation in Blue Spruce: A Test of Populations in Nebraska The Great Plains is a region with few native ever green species. One of the objectives of tree improvement research in this region is to introduce, test, and identify adapted seed sources of coniferous species for use in Great Plains windbreak, environmental improvement and esthetic plantings. Blue spruce (picea pungens because of its desirable foliage color and symmetry, is a highly valued species in the northern half of the United States and in Canada for landscaping and Christmas tree production. Because it is cold-hardy, drought-resistant, and long lived, blue spruce is also a desirable species for use in shelterbelt plantings, especially in the eastern part of the central and northern Great Plains and in the Prairie Provinces of Canada. Identification of blue spruce seed sources that are adapted to particular planting sites would increase the number of evergreen species suit able for planting in the North American prairie-plains.
