“…Significant differences were reported in height and diameter among clones of 13 years old Salix alba (ORLOVIĆ et al, 2006) and 14 years old clones of willow (TOPLU et al, 2008). JIANG et al, (2010) obtained a large significant differences among 27 poplar hybrids obtained from Populus deltoides x P. ussureinsis assessed with Populus x beijingensis at an age of 4 for height and diameter at breast height.…”

Willows being multipurpose species are well recognized in short rotation forestry world over. 200 clones of different species and hybrids were procured from twenty countries over the period of three years. These were subjected for nursery screening and further 18 promising clones were planted in March, 2006 at university main campus Nauni, Solan, Himachal Pradesh. The five years growth performance was evaluated and clone J-799 has given maximum plant height (19.33 m) which is at par with the clone NZ-1140 (16.33 m) followed by SI-63-007 (14.30 m). As regards with diameter at breast height and volume index, clone J-799 registered first rank followed by NZ-1140 and 131/25 recording 16.50 cm and 0.554 m3, 15.30 cm and 0.386 m3 ;15.30cm and 0.368m3, respectively. Bole straightness was recorded maximum in clone J-795 that is at par with clones J-194, PN-721 and 131/25 followed by clones J-799, SI-63-007, NZ-1140 and SI-64-017. Heritability in broad sense for bole straightness (46.36%) and genetic gain of the volume index (67.95%) was found highest. Genotypic, phenotypic and environment coefficients of variations were recorded maximum (0.995) for volume index character. Genetic correlation coefficient was highest (0.921) between plant height and volume, while phenotypic correlation coefficient was highest between diameter at breast height and volume index. On the basis of five year growth performance, five clones namely J- 799, NZ-1140, 131/25, SI-63-007 and PN-731 are found suitable for lower and mid-hills of Himachal Pradesh

“…Dry matter high yield was reported for Tordis at 33.1 t ha −1 year −1 and for Inger at 30.4 t ha −1 year −1 , and both cultivars showed great efficiency in a short-term cropping system among other tested cultivars [6]. Growth vigor is a desirable property and represents a result of genotype and genetic interactions, together with the growth environment [39]. Most of the studies testing the effects of nitrite and nitrate nutrition on growth morphological parameters [40], and comparative tests for establishing the heavy metal tolerance range [5,25], were made in the field and only a few were in the laboratory.…”

The major disadvantage of setting up a willow coppice is the low survival rate, which reduces economic efficiency and crop sustainability. The aim of this research was to test, under controlled conditions, the impact of water, gibberellic acid A3 (0.05%), and humic acid (0.2%) on the growth and development of two willow clones. Under humic acid treatment, 20 cm cuttings of the Tordis clone developed up to 15 roots, and 25 cm cuttings developed more than 23. In comparison, water stimulated more than 15 roots for both 20 and 25 cm cuttings. Gibberellins acted as an inhibitor, especially on the roots, and the cuttings dried out from the top to the middle, with weak development of shoots and callus formation. For both clones, the highest number of active buds was observed on 20 and 25 cm cuttings grown in water, with more than four for Inger and more than seven for Tordis. Root development of the Inger clone had a maximum of eight for 25 cm cuttings grown in water; it was three times lower in the same variant of Tordis and two times lower for the Tordis clone with humic acid treatment. In general, Inger cuttings of 15 and 25 cm highlighted a delayed root formation when humic acids and gibberellins were applied. In controlled condition experiments, the Tordis clone was more suitable owing to its higher development and increased growth stability.
