Elsevier INRA Comparative growth analysis of five first year establishment poplar clones Populus sp. grown under a short-rotation intensive culture system F. Mau and I. Impens Laboratory of Planty Ecology Department of Biology University of Antwerp Universiteitsplein 1 2610 Wilrijk Belgium Introduction Interest in fast growing poplar clones for maximum production in short-rotation intensive culture is obvious. Clones from Aigeiros and Tacamahaca sections are well suited for short-rotation intensive culture because of their rapid juvenile growth. Fig-1-.

Superior hybrid growth was indicated as a factor responsible for the good performance of hybrid poplar in comparison with mere species clones Cain and Ormrod 1984 .

Beaupre p. trichocarpa X p. deltoides cv. Raspalje were grown from cuttings planted in a 0 80 X m pattern at Afsnee 51 02 N 3 39 E Belgium in 1987. The trees were well irrigated fertilized and the plots kept free of weeds. Table I. Mean leaf area duration of 8 model trees in days for 5 clones ROB Robusta FRI Fritzl .
