Lignin-first biorefining of Nordic poplar to produce cellulose fibers could displace cotton production on agricultural lands By crossing Populus trichocarpa 3 P. from a distant population, hybrid trees were obtained that can grow rapidly marginal in northern climates.These hybrids be transformed by reductive catalytic fractionation yield delignified textile fiber substitute for as well ligninderived biofuel the gasoline-aviation-diesel range.The sustainability this value chain was evaluated...
Although poplars are widely grown in short-rotation forestry many countries, little is known about poplar growth performance Sweden. In this study, above-ground biomass production was estimated for several hybrid aspen and clones planted at different initial density five locations across Biomass assessments were based on allometric relationships between total woody dry weight the diameter breast height. According to a common harvest practice, tree partitioned into pulpwood energy purposes....
Abstract In a warming climate, the ability to accurately predict and track shifting environmental conditions will be fundamental for plant survival. Environmental cues define transitions between growth dormancy as plants synchronise development with favourable conditions, however these are predicted change under future climate projections which may have profound impacts on tree survival growth. Here, we use quantitative genetic approach estimate basis of spring autumn phenology in Populus...
Abstract Poplar plantations harbor large potential as a renewable source of biomass for bioenergy and other industrial applications. The overall aim this study is to analyze growth, phenology, stem form, branching characteristics 32 poplar clones grown in trial southern Sweden their suitability be feedstock. In linear mixed model, performed diameter at breast height volume, the precision was improved by use two competition indices. significance phenology quality growth performance ranking...
Abstract The increased demand for wood to replace oil-based products with renewable has lifted focus the Baltic Sea region where environment is favorable woody biomass growth. aim of this study was estimate broad-sense heritabilities and genotype-by-environment (G×E) interactions in growth phenology traits six climatically different regions Sweden Baltics. We tested hypothesis that both bud burst set have a significant effect on early selected poplar clones Northern Europe. Provenance...
Abstract In Northern Europe, poplars ( Populus ) can provide biomass for energy and material use, but most available clones were developed lower latitudes are unlikely to be well adapted higher latitudes, even under warmer climates. We thus need understand how respond climatic conditions photoperiod, these responses predicted. answer questions exploiting leaf phenological data of clones, grown in six sites across the Baltic region, 2 years with contrasting conditions. Regarding effects...
Abstract Background Entering and exiting winter dormancy present important trade-offs between growth survival at northern latitudes. Many forest trees display local adaptation across latitude in traits associated with these phenology transitions. Transfers of a species outside its native range introduce the to novel combinations environmental conditions potentially requiring different alleles optimize survival. In this study, we performed genome wide association analyses selection scan P....

Transfers of a species outside its native range introduce the to novel combinations environmental conditions potentially requiring different alleles optimize growth.
