In the manuscript entitled “ Differential expression of specific sulphate transporters underlies seasonal and spatial patterns of sulphate allocation in trees ” we examined the importance of sulphate transporter for seasonal sulphate storage and mobilisation in the wood of poplar. For this purpose we related seasonal gene expression patterns of specific sulphate transporter genes to sulphate contents in xylem sap and wood. Together with the previously published model for seasonal sulphate circulation between bark and leaf tissues of poplar (Dürr et al. , 2010) these results provide information for future mechanistic modelling of whole tree sulphate fluxes.
