The field performance of genetic containment technologies–considered important for
certain uses of transgenic trees in forestry–are poorly known. We tested the efficiency of a
barnase gene driven by the TA29 tapetum-dominant promoter for influencing growth rate and
inducing male-sterility in a field trial of transgenic hybrid poplar (Populus tremula x...

The stability and value of transgenic pest resistance for promoting tree growth are poorly understood. These data are
essential for determining if such trees could be beneficial to commercial growers in the face of substantial regulatory and
marketing costs. We investigated growth and insect resistance in hybrid poplar expressing the...

Overexpression of the bacterio-opsin (bO) gene in tobacco had previously been shown to induce hypersensitiveresponse- like lesions, increase viral and bacterial disease resistance, and stimulate pathogenesis-related gene expression. To see if this gene enhanced resistance to fungal pathogens of poplar, we generated a total of 35 transgenic lines in two...
