Abstract

Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir are the major Indian states growing poplar either as pure plantation or as part of agroforestry systems. A large number of exotic poplar chones have been tried in these states, Uttar Pradesh having the largest number of them. Apart from the established clones of G-3, G-48 and D-121 many more clones like S7C4, S7C8, S7C15, S7C20, 2503, 69/55, L12/82, L72/84, L215/84, 65/27 and 3201 have shown promise for these areas.
