The present invention is related to a method of producing paper pulp from a fibrous raw material. According to the invention, such pulpwood is used in which the content of phenol compounds or phenolic derivatives is clearly, advantageously at least 20% lower than the average content of such compounds in the native grade of the raw material. Advantageously, the content of parahydroxy-benzoic acid (PHBA) is determined from the pulpwood and pulpwood containing low PHBA levels is used as pulping raw material. The invention also provides a method of producing pulp-wood suitable for use in the manufacture of easily bleachable paper pulp, in which method selected native specimens of pulpwood trees with an advantageously low content of phenol compounds or phenolic derivatives are produced by micropropagation, the cloned tree specimens are planted and grown to obtain pulping raw material, the pulpwood is harvested, and the pulpwood is produced into paper pulp using mechanical, chemical or chemimechanical delignification methods.

[ We claim:] [1.] A method of producing paper pulp having a high brightness from a fibrous raw material, comprising the steps of:a) determining the average phenol compound or phenolic derivative content of specimens of a pulpwood species,b) selecting a specimen of part (a) having a phenol compound or phenolic derivative content which is lower than said average content of said compounds in said specimens of part (a), andc) producing said paper pulp by delignifying the fibrous raw material of the selected specimen of part (b) or a clone thereof, wherein said paper pulp that is produced has a brightness which is higher than the brightness obtained from said specimens of part (a) that have an average, or higher than average, content of phenol compounds or phenolic derivatives, when said specimens of part (a) are used to produce pulp by the same method.
