Mansfield,John Ralph,Gilles Pilate,Wout Boerjan,Wout Boerjan +33 more
TL;DR: Downregulation of CCR in transgenic poplar was associated with up to 50% reduced lignin content and an orange-brown, often patchy, coloration of the outer xylem, suggesting a stress response induced by the altered cell wall structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Designed for deconstruction--poplar trees altered in cell wall lignification improve the efficacy of bioethanol production.
TL;DR: Using genomic tools to breed or select for modifications in key cell wall chemical and/or ultrastructural traits can have a profound effect on bioenergy processing and may offer means to overcome the current obstacles that underpin the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic substrates to bioconversion.
Journal ArticleDOI
AtMYB61, an R2R3‐MYB transcription factor, functions as a pleiotropic regulator via a small gene network
Julia M. Romano,Christian Dubos,Christian Dubos,Christian Dubos,Michael B. Prouse,Olivia Wilkins,Olivia Wilkins,Henry Hong,Mervin Poole,Kyu-Young Kang,Kyu-Young Kang,Eryang Li,Carl J. Douglas,Tamara L. Western,Shawn D. Mansfield,Malcolm M. Campbell +15 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that AtMYB61 links the transcriptional control of multiple aspects of plant resource allocation through its role as a regulator of resource allocation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Over-expression of an arabidopsis family A sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) gene alters plant growth and fibre development
TL;DR: The correlation between increased stem sucrose content and plant phenotypes with elevated SPS gene expression confirm a role for sucrose availability in controlling plant growth and fibre elongation.
Book ChapterDOI
Effect of organosolv ethanol pretreatment variables on physical characteristics of hybrid poplar substrates.
TL;DR: The results indicated that the substrate characteristics are controllable and predictable, and desirable substrates can be prepared by fine-tuning the processing parameters.
