Quantitative trait locus mapping of Populus bark features and stem diameter

Abstract Background Bark plays important roles in photosynthate transport and storage, along with physical and chemical protection. Bark texture varies extensively among species, from smooth to fissured to deeply furrowed, but its genetic control is unknown. This study sought to determine the main g...
