Effects of Shoot Size and Genotype on Energy Properties of Poplar Biomass in Short Rotation Crops

Eight poplar genotypes grown in a short rotation forest plantation established in an acid soil in South Europe were sampled at the age of 7 years to determine the energy properties regarding thermochemical conversion. The goal was to address the effect of selection of genotypes or shoot size at harv...
