Abstract

DBH at the age of 10 years in a progeny test of Chinese fir with 80 families from Fujian Weimin Forest Farm was examined by both experimental design model and combined design with spatial model, through which spatial analysis methods using ASReml was introduced, and efficiency of genetic trial was improved. All design effects was found replaced by spatial effects in combined model. AIC was reduced by 129.2 in spatial model, which was more effectively modelled the spatial variation than the design model, and greatly increased additive genetic variance by 16.5%, reduced residual variance by 11.6%, and improved individual tree narrow sense heritabilities by 31.3% correspondingly. Autocorrelations in row and column direction with 0.89 and 0.96 indicated that there are strong global trend in this site.
