Forest Ecology and Management, 1991
Abstract The technology of genetic engineering provides an opportunity to accelerate tree improvement and to make directed modifications in the physical and chemical properties of wood. Modifications that lead to more efficient pulping of wood for paper may be among the earliest applications because of the information available on the pathway for ...

Metabolic Engineering of Wood Formation
2013Wood is one of the most abundant composite materials on earth consisting primarily of cellulose, noncellulosic polysaccharides and lignin. It is a sustainable and quite versatile natural resource that can be processed into many useful products including biofuels, biochemicals, wood pellets, pulp and paper, fibres, biocomposites and timber.

Viewed historically, wood has a rich history as a structural material in hydraulic engineering. There are many examples to illustrate this point, such as the sluice at Bleiswijk, where even the earth-retaining walls are constructed of wood, the ship-caisson with a span of approximately 20 metres as used, for example, in a tidal dock at Hellevoetsluis ...

Genetic Engineering of Wood Formation
2000Not many years after its discovery, the plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was demonstrated to activate cambial growth when applied to sunflower hypocotyls (Snow, 1935). In subsequent studies it was shown that IAA is involved in the control of several aspects of secondary growth, in particular the maintenance of the vascular cambium, the ...
