Investigating the efficiency of the carbon sequestration in above-ground biomass of some populous clones

Carbon sequestration through trees is one of the most important strategies to mitigate the carbon emission. The present study was conducted in Khorramabad Agricultural Orchard as randomized complete block design. In each experimental unit, three five-year-old trees were investigated in two groups and 12 poplar colonies or cultivars in three replications. Duncan multiple range test was used to find the mean comparison of the treatments and T test was applied to observe the differences between two groups. The results showed that there is a significant difference in the increment rate and amount of carbon sequestration in the two poplar groups (P
