Managing Risk in Clonal Forestry.
CAB Reviews: Perspectives in Agriculture, Veterinary Science, Nutrition and Natural Resources, 2006Abstract Risks associated with clonal forestry are mainly biological. Among such risks, propagation failure, cultivar decline, and imperfect clonal evaluation all call for specific, targeted countermeasures; delayed failure of clones, however, calls mainly for risk spread.

Eucalyptus Breeding for Clonal Forestry
2013As global demand for wood increases, planted forests will also become increasingly important. Accepting and promoting them as the only way to address the wood scarcity problem and also to help suppress the demand for illegally logged timber from natural forests is a major issue globally.

Genetics, Biotechnology and Clonal Forestry
1993Early foresters were among the first to understand and apply principles of evolution to practical forestry (Matthew 1831, 1860). Matthew’s first citation appeared 11 months before Darwin sailed on the Beagle, and earlier published observations on the effect of seed origin on the performance of planted trees go back to 1760 (reviewed in Larsen 1956).

Micropropagation and clonal options in forestry
1993Micropropagation has been achieved in a number of woody plant species. That is only the beginning in the production process. Before clonal material is regenerated by tissue culture, it would be desirable to consult geneticists/ breeders for inclusion of pedigreed material in the program.

Clonal Forestry with Tropical Hardwoods
1993The tropical forests are resources of enormous potential value as fuel wood, timber, and pulpwood. Although half of the forests of the world are in the tropics, the rate of depletion of these forests is a cause for concern.

Arguments for Redwood Clonal Forestry
1993Some concerned citizens are cautious about clonal forestry because they worry about “fooling Mother Nature”. But Mother Nature normally clones coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens). Stump sprouts, or sometimes stem sprouts or root sprouts or adventitious shoots, produce multiple copies of successful clones in local clumps for two, three, or even more ...
