I-69/55) trees were collected for studying the influence 14 of growth stress level on wood properties. Growth stress indicator (GSI) was measured at 8 positions around the 15 periphery of each trunk at...

Confocal Raman microscopy was used to illustrate changes of molecular composition in secondary plant cell wall tissues of poplar (Populus nigra x Populus deltoids) wood. Two-dimensional spectral maps were acquired and chemical images calculated by integrating the intensity of characteristic spectral bands. This enabled direct visualization of the spatial variation of the lignin content without ...

Plants produce two phosphorylated enzymes: pyrophosphate-dependent fructose-6-phosphate phosphotransferase (PFP) and ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase (PFK). However, the characterization of (PFK) family members their functions remains unexplored in Eastern Cottonwood (Populus deltoides). This study comprehensively analyzed 17 genes P. deltoides genome, including gene structure, conserved domai...

Confocal Raman microscopy was used to illustrate changes of molecular composition in secondary plant cell wall tissues of poplar wood. Two–dimensional spectral maps were acquired and chemical images calculated by integrating the intensity of characteristic spectral bands. This enabled direct visualization of the spatial variation of the lignin content without any chemical treatment or staining ...
