Shrub willow has strong adaptability, large biomass and short rotation period. Colorful willow barks have great ornamental and economic value. To study the color regulation mechanism, metabolomics and transcriptomics were used to analyze the purple, green and red barks. In the positive mode, a to...
To provide a transcriptome resource for identification of transcripts where abundance correlated with developmental changes in willow plantlets derived from bud culture after transfer to soil.
The Salicaceae family is of growing interest in the study of dioecy in plants because the sex determination region (SDR) has been shown to be highly dynamic, with differing locations and heterogametic systems across taxa. Previous studies investigating the mechanisms regulating sex in the genus Sali...
DNA methylation plays major roles in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression, transposon and transcriptional silencing, and DNA repair, with implications in developmental processes and phenotypic plasticity. Relevantly for arboreal species, DNA methylation constitute a regulative layer in cell ...
