The relative efficiency of indirect selection for test-tapping yield through other characters was estimated, and selection indexes for test-tapping yield were established on the basis of calculations of genetic correlations. The 3 characters judged the most important for selecting good seedlings were reference angle, plugging index and yield index, and the best selection index was the eleventh, which comprised these 3 characters and 2 others (specific leaf weight and primary bark thickness) UR - PBA ER -
