Abstract excerpt
Bark storage proteins (BSP) store nitrogen (N) translocated from senescing leaves in autumn, and supply reduced N for spring growth. Expression of bsp and BSP accumulation are associated with short day photoperiod. To determine if photoperiod-associated bsp expression varies among poplars native to different latitudes, Populus deltoides Bartr. clones originating from six latitudes were grown under natural...
