We evaluated the long-term pattern of leaf area index (LAI) dynamics and radiation use
efficiency (RUE) in short rotation poplar in uncoppice (single stem) and coppice (multi-stem) …

BACKGROUND Understanding the relationship between physiological traits with yield and
yield components is an essential step towards developing high‐yielding and high‐quality …

Shrub willow is considered an important dedicated energy crop in temperate climates for the
production of bioenergy, biofuels, and bio-based products. A methodology to rapidly and …

Forest above-ground biomass (AGB) estimation provides valuable information about the
carbon cycle. Thus, the overall goal of this paper is to present an approach to enhance the …

The paper presents some forestry aspects of using Inger and Tordis willow clones to obtain
woody biomass and remedy degraded soils. The methodological aspects regarding the …

Elevated carbon dioxide (EC) can increase the growth and development of different C3 fruit
crops, which may further increase the nutrient demand by the accumulated biomass. In this …

The paper aims to analyze the biomass at one year growth, resulting from the cultivation of
the INGER energy willow clone as a short rotation crop (SRC), in order to use it as a …

Hangs, RD, Schoenau, JJ, Van Rees, KCJ and Knight, JD 2012. The effect of irrigation on
nitrogen uptake and use efficiency of two willow (Salix spp.) biomass energy varieties. Can …

Aboveground biomass yields of short rotation cultures (SRC) of willow can vary substantially
depending on site quality. Among others, aboveground biomass yields depend on climatic …
