"These data give us a new insight into the #evolutionary relationships between wood nanostructure and the cell wall composition, which differs across the lineages of #angiosperm and #gymnosperm plants. By identifying the potential selective pressures for the evolution of macrofibril morphology, our work provides the basis for selection or engineering for desirable wood properties and may open up routes for improved #carbon #sequestration in plantation forests."
