Cedrela odorata L. seed yield variation at two sites in Veracruz, Mexico

With the purpose of identifying characteristics variation in fruit size and seed production (potential efficiency) Cedrela odorata L. between sites progenies established ejido La Balsa, municipality Emiliano Zapata, Veracruz, fruits were harvested from 20 trees February 2013, preserving identity each one. Fruit length width measured, was extracted developed aborted seeds counted to calculate Seed Production Potential (SPP) Efficiency (SE). The results showed significant differences for sites. mean values found were: 32.52 mm (fruit length), 18.73 width), 39.9 per 57.51% this species its use should be selected taking into account crops outstanding individual trees, addition, due current regulatory restrictions on collection, establishment trials plantations germplasm is a viable option forest management species.
