The transverse section of compression wood tracheids has a circular shape and intercellular spaces. The cause has not been determined yet;however, we hypothesized that peeling of the cell wall adhesion would cause cel...
The cell wall in wood is mainly composed of three components: cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. According to electron microscopy observations of the innermost surface of cell walls in the tracheids of Cryptomeria j...
Special xylem tissue called “compression wood” is formed on the lower side of inclined stems when gymnosperms grow on a slope. We investigated the molecular mechanism of compression wood formation. Transcriptome ana...
Maize plants are well colonized with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), which contribute mineral nutrients absorption from soil. However little is known about their role in nitrogen (N) absorption especially from ami...
