A genomic and molecular view of wood formation
Wood formation is a process derived from plant secondary growth. Different from primary
growth, plant secondary growth is derived from cambium meristem cells in the vascular and …

Distinct Roles of Cinnamate 4-hydroxylase Genes in Populus
Abstract Cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H) catalyzes the conversion of cinnamate into 4-
hydroxy-cinnamate, a key reaction of the phenylpropanoid pathway which leads to the …
