Abstract: ABSTRACT We employ a dendrochronological approach to examine spatial variation in radial tree growth-climate relationships and responses to global climate oscillations across the geographic ranges of Picea glauca and Picea engelmannii. Tree-ring chronologies were constructed… read more here.

Abstract: Conifers’ exceptionally large genome (20–30 Gb) is scattered with 60% retrotransposon (RT) components and we have little knowledge on their origin and evolutionary implications. RTs may impede the expression of flanking genes and provide sources of… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2017.01719
Abstract: While DNA methylation carries genetic signals and is instrumental in the evolution of organismal complexity, small RNAs (sRNAs), ~18–24 ribonucleotide (nt) sequences, are crucial mediators of methylation as well as gene silencing. However, scant study… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/f14040787
Abstract: Gišogenesis, otherwise known as secondary-xylem development, was investigated in an old-growth upland population of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) trees having morphologically diverse crowns and growing on a south slope north of East Fork… read more here.
