topics (OpenAlex): Biochemical and biochemical processes; Plant biochemistry and biosynthesis; Plant Gene Expression Analysis
TL;DR:
Evidence is presented of two monolignol 4CLs, Ptr4CL3 and P tr4CL5, in Populus trichocarpa that act to mitigate the inhibition by caffeic acid to maintain a proper ligation flux and coenzyme A flux with novel specificity.

TL;DR:
Lignification in wild type and lignin-reduced 4CL transgenic Populus trichocarpa stem wood with spatial resolution that is sub-μm is compared, suggesting that transgenic approach may help overcome cell wall recalcitrance to wood saccharification.

topics (OpenAlex): Plant tissue culture and regeneration; Transgenic Plants and Applications; Chromosomal and Genetic Variations
TL;DR:
The Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of Nisqually-1, a Populus trichocarpa genotype whose genome was recently sequenced, is reported here to facilitate studies of gene functions in tree growth and development at a genome level.

Open access is the free, immediate, online availability of research
articles. Making your research open access allows researchers across
to globe read and interact with your work which may increase citations
to your work.
Citation Index includes data from a number of different sources. If you have questions about the sources of data in the Citation Index or need a set of data which is free to re-distribute, please contact us.
