A transcriptional roadmap to wood formation [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001 The large vascular meristem of poplar trees with its highly organized secondary xylem enables the boundaries between different developmental zones to be easily distinguished. This property of wood-forming tissues allowed us to determine a unique tissue-specific transcript profile for a well defined developmental gradient.

Carbon allocation during defoliation: testing a defence-growth trade-off in balsam fir
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 During repetitive defoliation events, carbon can become limiting for trees. To maintain growth and survival, the resources have to be shared more efficiently, which could result in a trade-off between the different physiological processes of a plant. The

Navigating the transcriptional roadmap regulating plant secondary cell wall deposition
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 The current status of lignocellulosic biomass as an invaluable resource in industry, agriculture and health has spurred increased interest in understanding the transcriptional regulation of secondary cell wall (SCW) biosynthesis.

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

Systematic Review: Climate and Non-Climate Factors Influencing Wood Density in the Boreal Zone
BioResources, 2023 Wood density is a crucial factor in determining the quality of wood in boreal ecosystems within the Northern Hemisphere. Climate variables play a significant role in shaping wood density, posing challenges for forest managers and stakeholders in the wood

Genome-Wide Association Studies to Improve Wood Properties: Challenges and Prospects
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Wood formation is an excellent model system for quantitative trait analysis due to the strong associations between the transcriptional and metabolic traits that contribute to this complex process.

Organellar carbon metabolism is co-ordinated with distinct developmental phases of secondary xylem [PDF]
, 2019 Subcellular compartmentation of plant biosynthetic pathways in the mitochondria and plastids requires coordinated regulation of nuclear encoded genes, and the role of these genes has been largely ignored by wood researchers. In this study, we constructed
