Resumo(s)
Wood is one of the most important natural renewable resources. The developmental processes that underlie wood formation follow a well defined sequence of events that start at the core of the vascular cambium - the stem cell niche - that perpetually nourishes cells to the inside of the stem that ultimately become xylem/wood cells. The processes of specification and differentiation of cells into the xylem cell-types are far from being fully understood. It is a known fact that cells fated to become xylem have to commit suicide in order to serve this purpose.(...)
