The Västerhus clones are assigned to persons who
god-father the clones, a link to that page here
Ola Rosvall
left his position at Skogforsk (but keep on with much
of what he has done) at end of 2011. As a gift he got
signatures on a board made from a surplus tree of his dedicated clone from Västerhus.
Much of the work with pines
in Västerhus was done with a Japanese postdoc, Takeshi Torimaru,
who left Umeå at end of Mars 2009, but made a short
revisit. He was rewarded “Dag Lindgrens award for
talented forest geneticists” (20 000 SEK) at 130930 and will receive the
award 121206. One reason was to mark the inauguration of the “Dag Lindgren” seed orchard which
is genetically connected to Västerhus and may partly replace it.
