Temporally resolved intra-annual wood density variations in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) as affected by climate and aspect [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Research, 2012
We investigated the temporal variability of intra-annual wood density variations in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) in a valley in southwestern Germany. Samples were collected from 11 beech trees growing at north-west (NW) and south-west (SW) exposed

Endogenous Multilayer Control of Cambial Stem Cells and Its Consequences for Wood Formation [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
The vascular cambium serves as the fundamental meristem for wood formation. It determines wood biomass and structural properties by balancing self-renewal with the bidirectional production of xylem and phloem.

Association Genetics in Populus Reveal the Allelic Interactions of Pto-MIR167a and Its Targets in Wood Formation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial regulatory roles in plant growth and development by interacting with RNA molecules, including messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs); however, the genetic networks of miRNAs and their targets influencing

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 ...

Loss of Wood Formation Genes in Monocot Genomes. [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biol Evol, 2019
AbstractWoodiness (secondary xylem derived from vascular cambium) has been gained and lost multiple times in the angiosperms, but has been lost ancestrally in all monocots. Here, we investigate the conservation of genes involved in xylogenesis in fully sequenced angiosperm genomes, hypothesizing that monocots have lost some essential orthologs involved

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.

Poplar wood formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Genotypical effects on wood formation in aspen (Populus tremula x tremuloides) have been studied at morphological, ultrastructural and micro-distributional levels. To characterize transgenically in­duced modifications, light-, fluorescence-, UV-, scanning- and transmission electron microscopy have been applied complement­ed by immunolabeling ...

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 ...
