Extensively illustrated, this new book provides a comprehensive and critical overview of current understanding about the biology of wood formation, with a focus on the development, regulation and biochemistry of cambial growth supplemented by additional considerations of the fundamental factors determining forest productivity, wood quality and heartwood formation. CHAPTER 16 CAMBIAL ACTIVITY AND XYLEM DIFFERENTATION IN WALNUT 1. Introduction 2. Cambial activity 3. Construction of a cDNA library from active cambium 4. Cloning of genes involved in cell cycle control 5. Xylem differentiation 6. Heartwood formation 7. Extractives accumulation 8. Gene expression during heartwood formation 9. References

Roots perform a variety of biological functions. They keep the plant upright but are also the site of nutrient and water uptake and constitute important storage organs in some species. They produce growth regulators such as cytokinins and secondary metabolites such as flavonoids and alkaloids that can be involved in the defense against pathogens or in the cross-talk with symbiotic microorganisms. The cellular events that take place during embryogenesis and lead to the formation of the primary root have been well described in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; Fig. 1). Initially, the root apical meristem is formed from cells of both the basal and
