Genome Cytosine Methylation May Affect Growth and Wood Property Traits in Populations of <i>Populus tomentosa</i>

Growth and wood formation are crucial and complex biological processes during tree development. These biological regulatory processes are presumed to be controlled by DNA methylation. However, there is little direct evidence to show that genes taking part in wood regulation are affected by cytosine...
