> We are developing techniques for propagating clones of Populus spp. and
intend to apply these practices to other woody genera. I am interested the
techniques used on traditionally hard-to-root orchard species (wide variety
of fruits, nuts, grapes, etc) and how to obtain cuttings of these
materials. Our goal is develop techniques which would be cost-effective on
a commercial scale. For now, I am searching for sources of information for
the propagation of hard-to-root, highly- valued woody materials.
