1. Characterization of adventitious root formation in Populus species and Norway spruce
Sammanfattning : Adventitious root (AR) formation is a form of post-embryonic development and is a key adaptive trait in plants. De novo adventitious root regeneration represents an elegant evolutionary innovation that allows many plant species to multiply through vegetative propagation; it is widely used in forestry and horticulture to multiply elite genotypes.

2. The significance of ethylene and ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTORS in wood formation of hybrid aspen
Sammanfattning : The woody tissues serve to stabilise plants, store nutrients and translocate water and minerals. The formation of wood, or ’secondary xylem’, follows a well-defined developmental gradient which is initiated by cell division activity in the vascular cambium. LÄS MER
3. Effects of Cell Wall Structure on Tensile Properties of Hardwood : Effect of down-regulation of lignin on mechanical performance of transgenic hybrid aspen. Effect of chemical degradation on mechanical performance of archaeological oak from the Vasa ship
Sammanfattning : Wood is a complex material and the mechanical properties are influencedby a number of structural parameters. The objective of this study has been toinvestigate the relationship between the structure and the mechanical propertiesof hardwood. Two levels were of special interest, viz. LÄS MER
4. Sucrose cleavage pathways in aspen wood
Sammanfattning : Cellulose is the main component of wood and one of the most important renewable raw materials. In several tree species including Populus species, carbon for cellulose biosynthesis is derived from the disaccharide sucrose. LÄS MER
5. Xylan biosynthesis and modification : characterisation of a glycosyltransferase and a glycoside hydrolase in hybrid aspen
Sammanfattning : Wood is an important renewable material used by humans for a variety of downstream applications. The basic subcellular structure in wood is the cell wall, mainly consisting of the cross-linked polymers cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. LÄS MER
