ANNEX II

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE APPROVAL OF BASIC MATERIAL INTENDED FOR THE PRODUCTION OF FRM OF THE ‘SOURCE-IDENTIFIED’ CATEGORY

A. General requirement: The seed source or stand shall meet the criteria set by the competent authorities.

B. Specific requirements:

1. Type of basic material

 

The basic material shall be a seed source or stand located within a single region of provenance.

2. Effective size of the population

 

The seed source or stand shall consist of one or more groups of trees. Those trees shall be well distributed and sufficiently numerous to maintain genetic diversity and ensure adequate cross-pollination between the trees in those seed sources or stands.

3. Origin and region of provenance

 

(a) The region of provenance, the location and the latitudinal, longitudinal and altitudinal range of the place(s), where the FRM is collected, shall be stated in the master certificate.

(b) The professional operator shall determine either by historical evidence (bibliography, documentation kept by competent authorities, research institutes or any other organisations) or by other appropriate means (provenance trials), including internationally recognised bio-molecular techniques, whether the origin of the basic material is:

(i) autochthonous;

(ii) non-autochthonous;

(iii) indigenous;

(iv) non-indigenous;

(v) unknown.

In the case of non-autochthonous or non-indigenous basic material, the origin of that basic material shall be stated if known.

The competent authority shall verify the information provided by the professional operator.

4. Sustainability characteristics

 

(a) The trees shall be well-adapted to the climatic and ecological conditions including the biotic and abiotic factors prevailing in the region of provenance.

(b) The trees shall in be practically free from pests and their symptoms.

ANNEX III

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE APPROVAL OF BASIC MATERIAL INTENDED FOR THE PRODUCTION OF FRM OF THE ‘SELECTED’ CATEGORY

A. General requirement: The competent authority shall assess the stand with respect to the specific purpose for which the FRM will be used and shall give due weight to requirements set out in Section B, depending on that purpose. The competent authority shall determine the criteria for selection on the basis of that specific purpose for use of the FRM. That purpose shall be indicated in the national register of the Member State concerned.

B. Specific requirements:

1. Origin: It shall be determined either by historical evidence (bibliography, documentation kept by competent authorities, research institutes or any other organisations) or by other appropriate means (provenance trials), including internationally recognised bio-molecular techniques, whether the stand is autochthonous/indigenous, non-autochthonous/non-indigenous or whether its origin is unknown. For non-autochthonous/non-indigenous basic material the origin shall be stated if known.

2. Isolation: Stands shall be situated at a sufficient distance from stands of poor quality of the same species or from stands of a related species which can form hybrids with the species in question. Particular attention shall be paid to this requirement when the stands surrounding autochthonous/indigenous stands are non-autochthonous/non-indigenous or of unknown origin.

3. Effective size of the population: To maintain genetic diversity and ensure adequate cross-pollination, stands shall consist of one or more groups of trees. Those trees shall be well distributed and sufficiently numerous in a given area to maintain genetic diversity, to avoid the unfavourable effects of inbreeding and ensure adequate cross-pollination between those trees.

4. Age and development: The age or stage of development of the trees in the stands shall be such to allow the criteria given for the selection of those trees to be clearly judged.

5. Uniformity: Stands shall show a normal degree of individual variation in morphological characteristics. When necessary, inferior trees shall be removed.

6. Sustainability characteristics:

 

(a) Stands shall be well-adapted to the climatic and ecological conditions, including the biotic and abiotic factors prevailing in the region of provenance.

(b) The trees shall be practically free from pests and their symptoms and show resistance to adverse site conditions in the place where they are growing.

7. Volume production: For the approval of selected stands, the volume of wood produced shall normally be superior to the accepted average volume produced under similar ecological and management conditions.

8. Wood quality: The quality of the wood shall be taken into account. The quality of the wood is an essential criterion, if the FRM will be used in the forestry industry for the purpose of producing timber, furniture or pulp. In that case the competent authority shall give more weight to this criterion.

9. Form or growth habit: Trees in stands shall show particularly good morphological features, especially straightness and circularity of stem, favourable branching habit,

4

 

 

small size of branches and good natural pruning. In addition, the proportion of forked trees and those showing spiral grain shall be low.

(ii) the crossing design used to produce the FRM used in the evaluation tests.

(c) Test procedures

 

The following requirements shall be met:

(i) The genetic value of each component shall be estimated in two or more evaluation test-sites, at least one of which shall be in an environment relevant for the intended deployment area of the FRM.

(ii) The test period shall be of sufficient duration for the tested characteristics to be expressed.

(iii) The estimated superiority of the FRM to be marketed shall be calculated on the basis of these genetic values and the specific crossing design.

(iv) Evaluation tests and genetic calculations shall be approved by the competent authority.

(d) Interpretation

(i) The estimated superiority of the FRM shall be calculated against a reference population for a characteristic or set of characteristics. The professional operator shall define the reference population in the breeding program and describe this reference population in the test reports.

(ii) It shall be stated whether the estimated genetic value of the FRM is inferior to the reference population for any important characteristic.

 harvested by methods that ensure that the samples obtained are representative.

 

Artificial pollination may be utilised for the production of such FRM.

(b) Standards

(i) The performance of standards used for comparative purposes in the tests shall, if possible, be known over a sufficiently long period in the region in which the test is to be carried out. The standards represent, in principle, basic material that has been shown to be useful for the intended purpose for forestry at the time that the test starts, and in ecological conditions for which it is proposed to certify the FRM. The standards used for comparative purposes in the tests shall be, as far as possible:

 stands selected according to the criteria in Annex III; or

 basic material officially approved for the production of FRM of the tested category.

(ii) For comparative testing of artificial hybrids, both parent tree species shall, if possible, be included among the standards.

(iii) Several standards shall be used whenever possible. When justified, standards may be replaced by the most suitable of the FRM under test or the mean of the components of the test.

(iv) The same standards shall be used in all tests over as wide a range of site conditions as possible.

(c) Interpretation

(i) A statistically significant superiority as compared with the standards shall be demonstrated for at least one important characteristic.

(ii) The professional operator shall report if there are any characteristics of economic or environmental importance which show significantly inferior results to the standards, and their effects shall be compensated for by favourable characteristics.

 

4. PROVISIONAL APPROVAL

 

Preliminary assessment of young trials may be the basis for provisional approval. Claims of superiority based on an early assessment shall be re-examined at a maximum interval of ten years.

5. EARLY TESTS

 

Nursery, greenhouse and laboratory tests may be accepted by the competent authority for provisional approval or for final approval, if it can be shown that there is a close correlation between the measured characteristic and the characteristics normally assessed in forest stage tests. Other characteristics to be tested shall meet the requirements set out in point 3. 10
