Abstract

In Altai territory in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) clonal plantations, that include nearly 1.5 thousand trees of 118 clones, the stage-by-stage certification of trees was carried out. Certification process included 3 stages: 1) forestry stage (preliminary), 2) phenetic stage (basic), 3) genetical stage (précising). Accuracy of phenetic certification was 97.1 %. The final stage of certification was carried out taking into account of revealed «phenetic clusters» within of clones. One-ramet and many-ramets («mixed») samples were compared within clusters and these must show identical results if all ramets are truly marked. The stage-by-stage certification method allows less expensive molecular genetics testing in some cases.
