Tension wood as a model for functional genomics of wood formation [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2004
SummaryWood is a complex and highly variable tissue, the formation of which is developmentally and environmentally regulated. In reaction to gravitropic stimuli, angiosperm trees differentiate tension wood, a wood with specific anatomical, chemical and mechanical features.

Laser‐Induced Graphene Formation on Wood

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, 2017
Wood as a renewable naturally occurring resource has been the focus of much research and commercial interests in applications ranging from building construction to chemicals production. Here, a facile approach is reported to transform wood into hierarchical porous graphene using CO2 laser scribing.

Developmental biology of wood formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The wood-forming vascular cambium is responsible for the production of a large part of the biomass on this planet. Yet, there is only limited knowledge on how cell proliferation and differentiation in the cambial meristem are regulated.

Molecular control of wood formation in trees [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Wood (also termed secondary xylem) is the most abundant biomass produced by plants, and is one of the most important sinks for atmospheric carbon dioxide. The development of wood begins with the differentiation of the lateral meristem, vascular cambium, into secondary xylem mother cells followed by cell expansion, secondary wall deposition, programmed ...

Wood Formation in Trees [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2001
Among the ecosystem services provided by forests, wood provisioning takes a central position. Wood and derived products have played a critical role in the evolution of human kind and demand for raw material is increasing in a foreseeable future.

Current status and trends in forest genomics

open access: yesForestry Research, 2022
Forests are not only the most predominant of the Earth's terrestrial ecosystems, but are also the core supply for essential products for human use. However, global climate change and ongoing population explosion severely threatens the health of the ...

Computational modeling of cambium activity provides a regulatory framework for simulating radial plant growth

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Precise organization of growing structures is a fundamental process in developmental biology. In plants, radial growth is mediated by the cambium, a stem cell niche continuously producing wood (xylem) and bast (phloem) in a strictly bidirectional manner.

Divergent Deborah number-dependent transition from homogeneity to heterogeneity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Heterogeneous structures are ubiquitous in natural organisms. Native heterogeneous structures inspire many artificial structures that are playing important roles in modern society, while it is challenging to identify the relevant factors in forming these
