Synonym: | Populus balsamifera subsp. trichocarpa, Populus trichocarpa Torr. and A.Gray, Populus balsamifera subsp. trichocarpa (Torr. and A.Gray) Brayshaw |
Common: | black cottonwood, western balsam poplar (German: Haarfrüchtige Balsam-Pappel) |
Comment: | Populus trichocarpa, is a hardy, fast growing tree that can be propagated vegetatively. It has been chosen as a model plant for tree genomics because of its small genome size, rapid juvenile growth, ease of clonal propagation, high-throughput transformation and regeneration, and availability of extensive genetic maps. |
