PY - 2013 DA - 2013/08/07 TI - High levels of variation in Salix lignocellulose genes revealed using poplar genomic resources JO - Biotechnology for Biofuels SP - 114 VL - 6 IS - 1 AB - Little is known about the levels of variation in lignin or other wood related genes in Salix, a genus that is being increasingly used for biomass and biofuel production. The lignin biosynthesis pathway is well characterized in a number of species, including the model tree Populus. We aimed to transfer the genomic resources already available in Populus to its sister genus Salix to assess levels of variation within genes involved in wood formation.
