Wood characterization of Salix. 1. Influence of the site, clone, age and sampling height

The wood of two Salix clones cultivated in the Delta of Paraná River in Argentina was characterized according to their optical properties, chemical composition, basic density, tyloses content and health condition, analysing variations in terms of site, clone, age and sampling height. American willow...
