Extensive Variation in Drought-Induced Gene Expression Changes Between Loblolly Pine Genotypes [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Drought response is coordinated through expression changes in a large suite of genes. Interspecific variation in this response is common and associated with drought-tolerant and -sensitive genotypes.

Transcriptomic prediction of breeding values in loblolly pine. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2023 Phenotypic variation in forest trees can be partitioned into subsets controlled by genetic variation and by environmental factors, and heritability expressed as the proportion of total phenotypic variation attributed to genetic variation. Applied tree breeding programs can use matrices of relationships, based either on recorded pedigrees in structured ...

Identification, expression, and phylogenetic analyses of terpenoid biosynthesis-related genes in secondary xylem of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) based on transcriptome analyses [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) is one of the most important species for oleoresin (a mixture of terpenoids) in South China. The high oleoresin content of loblolly pine is associated with resistance to bark beetles and other economic benefits.
