TECHNICAL MEASURES TO REDUCE THE IMPACT OF POLLUTANTS ON THE ENVIRONMENT USING POPLAR SPECIES
Abstract
In the more developed European countries, because of the importance given to the poplar species, research in this field has increased, while feeling the need to set up an international coordinating forum. Due to the particularly rapid growth, poplar crops soon produce an important quantity of wood mass that satisfies to an increasing extent the wood needs of society. The wood of this species, with special characteristics, has multiple industrial uses: Timber and light packaging, fibro-woody plates and plywood, furniture veneers, matches, pulp for pulp and paper, wood for rural constructions, etc. The genetic resources of Poplar species are basically conservation and breeding arboreums, which comprise species and cultivars of national and international genobackground, of scientific and practical interest. For the establishment of Populetums, self-vegetative sources (cuttings) and hetero-vegetative are used some technologies specific to fruit culture, applied to forest plants recalcitrant to the cuttings. In general, two methods of grafting are successfully applied, namely: Splitting grafting and simple copulation grafting. One of the main objectives pursued in the selection-improvement programs and in the crop technologies of poplars was the production of as much wood as possible in a short time.
