Journal ArticleDOI
Novel and mechanical stress-responsive MicroRNAs in Populus trichocarpa that are absent from Arabidopsis.
TL;DR: It is shown that plant miRNAs can be induced by mechanical stress and may function in one of the most critical defense systems for structural and mechanical fitness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress‐responsive microRNAs in Populus
TL;DR: The cloning of small RNAs from abiotic stressed tissues of Populus trichocarpa (Ptc) and the identification of 68 putative miRNA sequences that can be classified into 27 families based on sequence homology are reported, which suggests that the members of a family may have different functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ptr-miR397a is a negative regulator of laccase genes affecting lignin content in Populus trichocarpa.

TL;DR: A hierarchical genetic regulatory network (GRN) built by a bottom-up graphic Gaussian model algorithm provides additional support for a role of ptr-miR397a as a negative regulator of laccases for lignin biosynthesis in wood formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a Systems Approach for Lignin Biosynthesis in Populus trichocarpa: Transcript Abundance and Specificity of the Monolignol Biosynthetic Genes
TL;DR: The identified 23 genes that most probably encode monolignol biosynthesis enzymes during wood formation are identified and evidence suggesting functional redundancy at the transcript level for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and cinnamate 4-hydroxylase is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
The cellulose synthase gene superfamily and biochemical functions of xylem-specific cellulose synthase-like genes in Populus trichocarpa.
TL;DR: Using Populus trichocarpa as a model angiosperm tree, a systematic analysis in various tissues of the absolute transcript copy numbers of cellulose synthase superfamily genes, the cellulose synthetase (CesA) and the hemicellulose-related cellulOSE synthase-like (Csl) genes is reported.
