| Abstract: | Background The monolignol biosynthetic pathway interconnects with the biosynthesis of other secondary phenolic metabolites, such as cinnamic
acid derivatives, flavonoids and condensed tannins. The objective of this study is to evaluate whether genetic modification
of the monolignol pathway in silver birch (Betula pendula Roth.) would alter the metabolism of these phenolic compounds and how such alterations, if exist, would affect the ectomycorrhizal
symbiosis. |
