Abstract
An extensive analytical platform for selecting genes with a possible commercial phenotype from a large group of candidate genes identified using tools in bioinformatics, data from EST sequencing and DNA array is disclosed. Methods are disclosed for producing a transgenic plant having an increased growth compared to its wild type by altering in the plant the level of a gene product of at least one gene specifically expressed during different phases of wood formation. This may be done with transgenic methods or by specific crossing methods. Plant cells or plant progeny and wood having modulated gene expression are also disclosed. A DNA construct with a nucleotide sequence for a gene producing a transgenic plant having an increased growth compared to its wild type and a plant cell or plant progeny having the DNA construct are also disclosed.
