Gravity sensing, a largely misunderstood trigger of plant orientated growth
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Gravity is a crucial environmental factor regulating plant growth and development. Plants have the ability to sense a change in the direction of gravity, which leads to the re-orientation of their growth direction, so-called gravitropism.

Plants, 2020 Recent advances in our understanding of the molecular control of secondary cell wall (SCW) formation have shed light on molecular mechanisms that underpin domestication traits related to wood formation. One such trait is the cellulose microfibril angle (

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2023 Mahogany wood is a type of wood often found in sawmills because the wood grows faster than other types of wood, so a lot of mahogany sawdust is wasted and not utilized in a product that is discarded and has economic value.

The Molecular Mechanisms of Reaction Wood Induction [PDF]
, 2013 The book is an essential reference source on reaction wood for wood scientists and technologists, plant biologists, silviculturists, forest ecologists, and anyone involved in the growing of trees and the processing of wood. It brings together our current understanding of all aspects of reaction wood, and is the first book to compare and discuss both ...

Growth Stresses in Trees: The Nature, Formation and Manifestations of Growth Stresses
Forestist, 2007 Growth stresses are characteristic of normal growing trees and occur in both hardwoods and softwoods. Growth stresses are not visible and can not be measured directly. However, theyare estimated by strain measurements in wood.

Physical and Mechanical Properties of Reaction Wood [PDF]
, 2013 Reaction wood produces very peculiar maturation stresses at the tree periphery i.e. compressive stress or very high tensile stress, for compression and tension wood respectively, as compared to moderately high tensile stress for normal wood. This means that both its mechanical state and its mechanical and physical properties differ from normal wood ...

Preparation and Luminescence Properties of Europium(III) Ternary Complex-modified Poplar Wood-based Materials [PDF]
Materials Research, 2019 Inspired by the ultraviolet induced properties of biological materials, we developed fluorescent wood as a new type of functional material which can be applied to anti-counterfeit label technology and wood-emitting artwork.

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2020 Black spruce trees lean to form “drunken” forest on degrading permafrost; however, the causes of tree leaning on continuous permafrost remain unclear. Leaning events are recorded by reaction wood formation in tree rings, and it remains unclear what soil ...
