Norway spruce natural regeneration: no
sign of invasion. This forestry research report, prepared
by Marie-Josée Mottet and colleagues of the Quebec Ministry
of Natural Resources and Wildlife, describes a field study the
spread of natural seedlings of the introduced species Norway spruce
from 30- to 80-year-old plantations, and found that the incidence
of natural regeneration decreased rapidly beyond the boundaries
of the plantations. The report, in French with an abstract in
English, will be of interest to those investigating similar issues
with introduced hybrid poplars.

Purpose-grown Woody Biomass Crops: state
of knowledge. This report, prepared for the Saskatchewan
Forest Centre by Cees van Oosten, SilviConsult Woody Crops Technology
Inc., is a review of the state of knowledge of purpose-grown woody
biomass crops from the perspective of species preference, crop
density, crop cycle and yield. The review only considers willow
(Salix spp.) and poplar (Populus spp.), as these
are the two woody species of greatest potential for Canada and
in particular for the Prairie Region.
