Provided here are both underlying theory and recent results
concerning the propagation and use of clones in research and in
production forestry. State-of-the-art science and case histories
treating production, testing, multiplication and deployment of
clones are presented. Agroforestry, urban forestry and
christmas-tree farming are covered, along with more traditional
multiple-use forestry and high-intensity forestry for biomass, wood
and fiber production. Clonal forestry is contrasted to the more
recent developments of "family forestry," and the classical
tree-improvement approach relying on seed-orchards. The history of
clonal forestry is covered with reviews of several centuries
experience with Sugi in Japan and poplars in Europe. The impacts
and use of clones in the contexts of genetic conservation and
biodiversity are discussed, as are the laws and regulations
affecting clonal production and deployment.
