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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
