Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a genetically modified woody plant with improved growth properties (in terms of biomass and/or wood density) as compared to a corresponding non-genetically modified wild type plant or woody plant, said method comprising altering the level of expression of a polypeptide in a woody plant cell; a woody plant; or a part thereof.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a set of genes, which when modified in plants gives altered lignin properties. The invention provides DNA construct such as a vector useful in the method of the invention. Further, the invention relates to a plant cell or plant progeny of the plants and wood produced by the plants according to the inventionLower lignin levels will result in improved saccharification for bio-refining and ethanol production and improved pulp and paper. Increased lignin levels will utilise lignin properties for energy production.The genes and DNA constructs may be used for the identification of plants having altered lignin characteristics as compared to the wild-type.According to the invention genes and DNA constructs may also be used as candidate genes in marker assisted breeding.

Abstract translation: 本发明涉及一组基因，当在植物中被修饰时，它们产生改变的木质素性质。 本发明提供了DNA构建体，例如可用于本发明方法的载体。 此外，本发明涉及由根据本发明的植物产生的植物和木材的植物细胞或植物后代。较低的木质素水平将导致用于生物精炼和乙醇生产的改进的糖化以及改进的纸浆和纸。 增加的木质素水平将利用木质素的能量生产特性。 基因和DNA构建体可用于鉴定与野生型相比具有改变的木质素特征的植物。 根据本发明，基因和DNA构建体也可以用作标记辅助育种中的候选基因。
