Deficient sucrose synthase activity in developing wood does not specifically affect cellulose biosynthesis, but causes an overall decrease in cell wall polymers
The biosynthesis of wood in aspen (P opulus) depends on the metabolism of sucrose, which
is the main transported form of carbon from source tissues. The largest fraction of the wood …
