Ethylene Signaling Is Required for Fully Functional Tension Wood in Hybrid Aspen

Ethylene Signaling Is Required for Fully Functional Tension Wood in Hybrid Aspen

Tension wood (TW) in hybrid aspen trees forms on the upper side of displaced stems to generate a strain that leads to uplifting of the stem. TW is characterized by increased cambial growth, reduced vessel frequency and diameter, and the presence of gelatinous, cellulose-rich (G-)fibers with its micr...
