To better understand the molecular processes associated with the development of the unusually long (> 30 mm) and strong bast fibre cells within the phloem of flax stems, we conducted a gene discovery experiment to identify transcripts enriched in fibre-bearing tissues, with the intention that these transcripts would serve as future targets for crop improvement and research in phloem development and cell wall deposition. We produced a library of 9,600 cDNA clones from the peels of flax stems, and ...[more]
