Secondary growth is a process related to the formation of new cells that increase in size and wall thickness during xylogenesis. Temporal dynamics of wood formation influence cell traits, in turn affecting cell patterns...
A mismatch between the thresholds of temperature and moisture for the onset of xylogenesis may increase forest vulnerability in semi-arid areas under forecasted warmer and drier conditions.
During the growing season, the cambium of conifer trees produces successive rows of xylem cells, known as tracheids. Current knowledge on this process mainly stems from xylogenesis monitoring spanning a few years. In...
A study of Arabidopsis transcription factors finds that AR-formation and xylogenesis are inversely related but involve fine-tuning by the same proteins.
Hemispheric-scale reconstructions of surface temperature fluctuations over the last millennium have identified the 20th century as uniquely warm. Boulouf Lugo et al. monitor timings of wood formation in black spruce...
