| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The secondary xylem of the wood trunk is composed of the daughter cells produced by vascular cambium in the stem. Proliferation of woody cell in the secondary xylem is performed by long-range cell division. Most of woody cells have thickened secondary cell wall, constituting large amount of biomass storage. Therefore, the regulation of cell division in vascular cambium and differentiation into the secondary xylem is important for biomass production.
In this study, we constructed mitosis marker, Populus trichocarpa CYCB promoter fused with GUS and cell plate formation marker, P. trichocarpa SCAMP-Like protein promoter fused with GUS. Using these vectors, we evaluated cell division activity and cell plate formation in vascular cambium of poplar tree. Furthermore, we also constructed secondary xylem formation marker, P. trichocarpa GT43A promoter fused with GUS and evaluated differentiation into the secondary xylem of the wood trunk.
