Abstract
Overexpression of walldof transcription factor increases secondary wall deposition and alters carbon partitioning in poplar
Highlights
Of the total worldwide biomass produced by land plants, 70% is represented by cell walls [1]
A DOF (DNA-binding with one finger) domain transcription factor family member that presents a cambium-preferred expression profiling was selected for further characterization
We report that overexpression of WALLDOF in transgenic poplar is capable of increasing secondary wall deposition and altering carbon partitioning in poplar stems
