Description:	The University of Tennessee’s Tree Improvement Program is in its 49th year of conducting research and technology transfer activities with a special emphasis on hardwood species, particularly oak (Quercus spp.). Programs have included seed orchard construction and development, nursery studies, silviculture tests with genetic backgrounds, agroforestry, afforestation studies, and precision forestry. Cooperative research is being conducted in molecular genetics with scientists seeking pedigreed materials and pedigreed field studies. Afforestation and reforestation activities with the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency are being conducted to restore bottomland losses to agricultural sites. The program’s work with seed orchard development and nursery practices is geared to provide locally adapted high quality seedlings to achieve land management goals. The program currently has plantings from New York state to Nebraska in various stages of development.
