General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function analysis of 30 pectate lyase-like genes in Populus trichocarpa. Most of the PL1 genes from subgroups Ia and Ib are highly expressed in xylem. Isoform PL1-18 from subgroup Ia is preferentially expressed in developing primary xylem and in xylem cells that are developing secondary walls. Overexpression of PL1-18 in poplar reduces plant growth and xylem development. Reduced secondary cell wall thickening and irregular xylem cells are observed in the transgenic trees, probably due to their lower pectin content Populus trichocarpa
