The aim of this investigation was to quantity the photosynthetic capacity of four poplar clones and two willow clones growing on soil contaminated by heavy metals and diesel fuel during the early growing period. Genotypes were obtained from the Institute of Lowland, Forestry and Environmantal Protectin in Novi Sad, Serbia. The experiment was set in May 2008. Plants were grown in a semi-controlled environment (greenhouse) by the soil culture method. Photosynthesis and transpiration were measured using the LCpro+ portable photosynthesis system, manufactured by ADC BioScientific Ltg. The results indicated genotypic specificity of all the investigated physiological parameters and marked poplar clones as very useful in phytoextraction technology for bio-cleaning of chemically polluted soils.
