Wood, which is mainly composed of lignified secondary cell wall, is the most abundant biomass in woody plants. Previous studies have revealed that R2R3-type MYB transcription factors are important regulators of the formation of the secondary cell wall in vascular plants. In this study, we isolated the R2R3-type MYB transcription factor gene <i>PtoMYB055</i>, which is mainly expressed in xylem and phloem tissue, from <i>Populus tomentosa</i> and demonstrate that PtoMYB055 is a key regulator of li ...[more]
