A significant study has mapped the genetic complexity of Populus cathayana, an ecologically and economically valuable poplar species. By creating a detailed genome assembly and analyzing genetic ...

Scientists have succeeded in unraveling the whole genome sequence of desert poplar, Populus euphratica, and the genetic bases underlying poplar to against salt stress. This work provides new insights ...

To study post-mating reproductive barriers creating segregation distortions, we developed a controlled backcross of an F 1 natural poplar hybrid (Populus tremula × alba) with a pure P. alba (BC 1).

Recent work shows that the plant microbiome - the microorganisms in a plant and its immediate environment - influences plant health, survival, and fitness. The initial assembly of the microbiome is ...
