| Abstract | Teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) is a highly valued timber species raised in plantations throughout the tropics. Clonal Seed Orchards (CSO), established through grafts of selected trees are considered to be channels of genetically improved seed and starting point for domestication. India has over 1000 ha of CSOs but seed production from them has been too low to make any impact on the new plantations or advancing the breeding cycle. Genetic improvement of teak has not moved beyond the first generation orchards during the last 50 years. |
