The potential of aspen clonal forestry in Alberta: breeding regions and estimates of genetic gain from selection.
BACKGROUND: Aspen naturally grows in large, single-species, even-aged stands that regenerate clonally after fire disturbance. This offers an opportunity for an intensive clonal forestry system that closely emulates the natural life history of the species. In this paper, we assess the potential of ge...
