The Eucalyptus genome integrative explorer (EucGenIE): a resource for Eucalyptusgenomics and transcriptomics

Abstract

The fast growth and good wood properties of Eucalyptus tree species and hybrids make them excellent renewable sources of fiber for pulp and paper production, and woody biomass for bioenergy production. Our research is aimed at understanding the genetic regulation of wood formation in eucalypts, with a focus on transcriptomes, regulatory sequences and gene families involved in secondary cell wall biosynthesis.
