Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: PtoCesA3
• Gene Name: cellulose synthase3
• Genome:
• Species: Populus tomentosa

Functional Descriptions:

• Single nucleotide polymorphisms in a cellulose synthase gene (PtoCesA3) are associated with growth and wood properties in Populus tomentosa.
• Identification of PtoCesA3 and examining its allelic polymorphisms using association studies open an avenue to understand the mechanism of cellulose synthesis in the primary cell wall and its effects on the properties of woody tissues.
• This analysis of PtoCesA3 polymorphisms provides molecular markers associated with growth and wood property traits and improves our understanding of the mechanism of cellulose synthesis in the primary cell wall.
• PtoCesA3 is involved in cellulose synthesis in the primary cell wall.
