The wood-forming tissues of trees offer an attractive experimental system in which to correlate tissue-specific expression with stages in a defined developmental gradient. In the December 4 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Magnus Hertzberg and colleagues from the Umeå Plant Science Center in Umeå, Sweden, describe a transcript-profiling study of xylogenesis in poplar trees (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2001, 98:14732-14737).
