Characterization and T-DNA insertion sites identification of a multiple-branches mutant br in Betula platyphylla × Betula pendula [PDF]
Background Plant architecture, which is mostly determined by shoot branching, plays an important role in plant growth and development. Thus, it is essential to explore the regulatory molecular mechanism of branching patterns based on the economic and ...

A Cys2His2 Zinc Finger Transcription Factor BpSZA1 Positively Modulates Salt Stress in Betula platyphylla [PDF]
Zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) are widely involved in plant growth and abiotic stress responses, however, few of these proteins have been functionally characterized in tree species.

Features of the structural response of the bark and wood of birch (Betula platyphylla, Betulaceae) in the landscapes of sea coasts, magmatic and mud volcanoes of Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands [PDF]
Betula platyphylla is one of the main forest-forming species in Northeast Asia. In the Russian Far East, it forms birch and diverse mixed forests. Due to high germinative ability and growth rates, unpretentiousness, resistance to wind, drought, low and ...

BpGRP1 acts downstream of BpmiR396c/BpGRF3 to confer salt tolerance in Betula platyphylla. [PDF]
Summary Glycine‐rich RNA‐binding proteins (GRPs) have been implicated in the responses of plants to environmental stresses, but the function of GRP genes involved in salt stress and the underlying mechanism remain unclear.
