Scientists at the VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems Biology and VIVES University College have developed a new method to genetically improve poplar trees without introducing foreign DNA into its ...

A study from our group spanning 18 months found no significant differences in the extent of decomposition between field-grown wild-type and lignin-modified poplar wood; indeed, the variation ...

Studies with male transgenic poplar trees containing a male-sterility gene showed that several transgenic events had very low or undetectable levels of pollen production, which persisted over ...

Trees, like humans ... To address this, the researchers conducted an extensive study based on 68 genetically modified poplar or aspen lines with different, modified properties.
