Authors: Kathreena Engay-Gutierrez, Eraldwin Dimailig, Jenny Yacon

Highlights of the study:
• Species of plus trees/mother trees at the northeastern slope of Mt. Banahaw de Lucban were represented by 12 families, namely Annonaceae, Fabaceae, Fagaceae, Clusiaceae, Meliaceae, Myrtaceae, Podocarpaceae, Sapindaceae, Sapotaceae, Symplocaceae, Theaceae and Tiliaceae.
• The plus/mother trees found at 700, 800, and 900 masl exhibit good phenotypic characteristics (5-6 average score), indicating their potential for seed production. In comparison, those found at 1000 masl-1800 masl show fair (3-4 average score) phenotypic characteristics but still hold promise for seed production.
• The identified plus trees have the potential for seed production or sources of propagules such as 𝐾𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑠 (𝑇𝑜𝑜𝑛𝑎 𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑠 Merr.) at 700-900 masl while 𝑀𝑎𝑘𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑠𝑖𝑚 (𝑆𝑦𝑧𝑦𝑔𝑖𝑢𝑚 𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑑𝑢𝑚 Benth.) and 𝐵𝑎𝑛𝑎ℎ𝑎𝑤 𝐼𝑔𝑒𝑚 (𝐷𝑎𝑐𝑟𝑦𝑐𝑎𝑟𝑝𝑢𝑠 𝑐𝑢𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑖𝑖 (Parl.) de Laub.) at higher elevations.
