Systematic integrative analysis of lignin biosynthesis in P. trichocarpa. a The experimental data measured for the transgenics and wildtype. b(1-3)Â The quantitative relationships between transcript and protein abundances are represented by simple linear regressions. Monolignol pathway metabolites and fluxes are estimated using mass-balance kinetics. Multiple linear regressions associate the metabolite concentrations and fluxes with lignin and wood properties. c The 25 key lignin and wood properties
