Biotechnological adaptation of high-yielding, gibberellin-overproducing Populus trees to seasonal growth patterns

Tree growth is central to both terrestrial ecology and the forestry industry. Biotechnology for inducing the overproduction of phytohormones such as gibberellins (GAs) is a powerful tool for improving tree yield and wood properties. Augumentation of GAs in trees in temperate and...
