Abstract excerpt
Lignin provides structural support in perennial woody plants and is a complex phenolic polymer derived from phenylpropanoid pathway. Lignin biosynthesis is regulated by coordinated networks involving transcription factors (TFs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). However, the genetic networks underlying the lignin biosynthesis pathway for tree growth and wood properties remain unknown. Here, we...
