Assessing the Potential for Hybrid Vigour Within a Species: Disparate Population Breeding of Balsam Poplar
DownloadFall 2021
When two or more species are crossed to produce hybrid progeny, some of them can be expected to yield a growth performance far superior to that of either parent (i.e., hybrid vigour/heterosis). To date, there have been few attempts to examine whether hybrid vigour can be achieved by crossing...

Restoration of Degraded Trail Crossings in Wet and Riparian Areas Using Balsam Poplar Cuttings, Blue Rapids Provincial Recreation Area, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2019
Protected areas are established and maintained in Alberta, Canada for the conservation and preservation of natural features and to facilitate their use and enjoyment for outdoor recreation and education. The use of off-highway vehicles (OHV) is a popular recreational activity in Alberta’s parks....

Role of adventitious roots in water relations of tamarack (Larix laricina) seedlings exposed to flooding
Download2012
Calvo-Polanco, M., Senorans, J., Zwiazek, J.J.
Background: Flooding reduces supply of oxygen to the roots affecting plant water uptake. Some flooding-tolerant tree species including tamarack (Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch) produce adventitious roots in response to flooding. These roots were reported to have higher hydraulic conductivity...

The role of microtopography in vegetation colonization and early forest development on mine reclamation sites
DownloadSpring 2023
Microsite heterogeneity is an important variable that drives biodiversity in forests. Current forest reclamation practices often do not incorporate site heterogeneity in their practices which might pose a challenge to the reclamation goals of restoring disturbed sites to resilient and sustainable...
