What it is?
	It is a graph that plots genetic diversity and trait diversity in consensus units, which depicts the status, essentially helps in decision making on crop improvement programe such as
		* To ascertain the worthiness of the strategies amalgamated to improve the trait diversity
		* To provide the scope for necessitating the improvement for genetic diversity

Objective:
	To establish the GD-TD status of Indian eucalyptus core population


Strategy
	* Representative materials (10) from each pool for diversity estimates (analysis together)
	* Existing realistic data (Mor. Traits)
	* Expected heterozygosity (He) vs each mor. traits
	* Estimate the He-Ho to acertain the quantum if Hardy wainberg forces on each population
	* plot the data
	* Interpret to provide breeding strategy for each population
	* Publication (Timeline DEC 2010)


Real scale Materials
	SNP Material (2 provinace from Australia)
	IFGTP (Collection)
	ITC clones
	Hybrids of Ec vs Ep
	New Species pool
	E. urophylla collection (South Africa)
	New clones selection
	
====================================================================
Pilot experiment
	Plot GD-TD of New clones selection for 'PY' vs 'He' for 10 selected new clones

Strategy
	* 10 New clones + 5 ITC clones were selected for analysis
	* 'He' 'Ho' were estimated using 15 selected SSR markers
	* 'PY' was estimated using NIR
	* Analysis
		* Heterozygosity was estimated for individual groups (ITC and New clones) as well as combined ITC+New clones
		* For the indidual He values of new clones, each new clone data was combined with all ITC clones
		* Values were ploted as below
			* 'He' of indidual New cloens vs pulp yield
			* Mean 'He' vs mean pulp yiled of new clones
			* Mean 'He' vs mean pulp yiled of ITC clones
			* Mean 'He' vs mean pulp yiled of ITC+new clones

* Results and 'take home' from pilot experiment with new clone
	* "He" is ~0.69 for ITC and NC, when analyzed individually. Though ITC clones and new clones "little" differ mathematically, they do not differ significantly, both group have good allelic diversity, that tells us the potential for improvement.

	* When data is analyzed as a whole (ITC+NC), the "He" deviates (0.72) then either of the individual group. This essentially means that there are different set of alleles (so its frequency) present in each group. Therefore NC and ITC types deserve the definition of "population" that arise from different pedigree.

	* In all the cases, Ho is ~0.4 and the deviation of He and Ho ("He-Ho") is really notable(~0.3). This tells us that both ITC and NC group have undergone considerable amount of "disturbing" forces (as defined Hardy weinberg law)

	* There is a shift from one
