SYNCHRO: A SAS program for analysing the floral phenological synchronisation in seed orchards

We provide a comprehensive SAS program to facilitate the analysis of the phenological synchronisation among all the genetic entries of a seed orchard. The program, intended for SAS-PC 6.12 under the Microsoft Windows, computes several phenological synchronisation indices for each male-female combination and performs the male and female phenograms as well as other simple graphics that may help in the interpretation of the phenological synchronisation parameters. An example of the phenological synchronisation study in a Pinus pinaster Ait. seed orchard in Northwest Spain is presented to demonstrate the use of the program and the features of the outputs.

This study was financed by the INIA Project SC99-028-C3-10.
