    Abstract The heartwood of Dalbergia odorifera T. Chen (D. odorifera) is highly valuable. It was speculated that drought could promote heartwood formation in D. odorifera. To test this hypothesis, we artificially simulated conditions of low and high soil moisture content and investigated whether D. odorifera trees living in habitats with contrasting soil water conditions display distinct heartwood formation. Besides, we performed a preliminary study to explore the possible mechanism of drought affecting heartwood formation in D. odorifera in terms of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC). Higher heartwood formation percentage and heartwood size were observed in drought-treated trees. The heartwood density of drought-treated trees was significantly greater than that of control and the oil content of heavy drought-treated heartwood was significantly higher than that of the other treatments. None of water treatments had a significant effect on the essential oil components of heartwood. Furthermore, the effects of water treatments on the total amount of NSC were very limited; however drought treatments enhanced the transformation of starch to soluble sugars compared to control. This study confirmed the hypothesis that drought could promote the heartwood formation in D. odorifera, not by changing the total amount of NSC but by changing the component proportion of NSC.

    Abstract Agarwood, a resinous portion of injured Aquilaria trees, has become scarce and precious because of its low yields in ordinary Aquilaria sinensis. A new type of A. sinensis, namely easier induced agarwood A. sinensis germplasm (EIAA), has recently been selected and cultivated. However, no information has been reported about its agarwood formation mechanism yet. Multiple approaches, including anatomical, physiological, biochemical and molecular profiling, were employed in this study to investigate wounding-induced agarwood formation in two types of A sinensis. After mechanical damage, the related physiological and biochemical parameters regulating defense response were increased significantly, while the related parameters regulating growth were decreased significantly in two types of A sinensis. The strength of defense response was decreased and the growth performance was recovered over time. Compared to ordinary A. sinensis, EIAA showed higher hormones levels of salicylic acid, jasmonic acid and ethylene, higher activities of antioxidant enzymes, more total phenols and terpenes, higher net photosynthetic rate and photochemical efficiency of PSII, more consumption of non-structural carbohydrates, higher agarwood yield and oil content. There were marked differences in the components of agarwood essential oils between two types of A. sinensis. In particularly for 2-(2-phenylethyl) chromone and 2-[2-(4′-methoxybenzene) ethyl] chromone, their richness in agarwood essential oil of EIAA was significantly higher in contrast with the ordinary A. sinensis agarwood. Differentially expressed genes further ensured the differences in defense responses to wounding stress and secondary metabolism patterns between two types of A. sinensis. These data collectively demonstrate that there is a tradeoff between growth and defense during wounding-induced agarwood formation and EIAA had stronger defense ability in physiological and biochemical levels compared with ordinary A. sinensis. This is the physiological mechanism by which EIAA has higher agarwood yield and essential oil content. Moreover, the differential expression of flavonoid biosynthesis-related genes explained the different chromone synthesis pathways between two types of A. sinensis. These findings provide new insights into wounding-induced agarwood formation mechanism in A. sinensis, especially for EIAA.

    Abstract Thailand rosewood (Dalbergia cochinchinensis) is a vulnerable high value tree species in subtropical and tropical Southeast Asia. The demand for the rehabilitation of the natural habitat of the species requires high-quality seedlings. However, current fertilizer regimes tend to deliver a coarse rate of fertilizers that result in a low uptake efficiency and a high risk of nutrient excess. Exponential fertilization is an effective approach to promote seedling quality through identifying an optimum dose out of a range of applications. In this study, Thailand rosewood seedlings were cultured in a mixed substrate of perlite, vermiculite, and peat (2:2:3, v/v/v) and received exponential fertilization from 0 (control), through 100, 200, 300, 400, and 600 mg nitrogen (N) per plant over a four-month cultural rotation. Height, diameter, and shoot biomass increased with fertilizer rate and were maximized at 300 mg N per plant. This application also reduced nutrient deficiencies and avoided excess supply compared to higher rates. Polysaccharide, proline, and anti-oxidation enzyme activities tended to be greater in unfertilized controls or in over-fertilized high dosages, with lower activities around 100–300 mg N plant⁻¹. Application of 300 mg N per plant was identified as the optimum dosage as it maximized nutrient reserves, polysaccharide and proline contents, and anti-oxidants without causing any symptoms from excess fertilizer toxicity. Future work is required to identify the effects of N-fixation on the formation of nutritional reserves in Thailand rosewood seedlings subjected to exponential fertilization.

    Abstract Sandalwood is one of the most expensive woods in the world and is well known for its long-lasting and distinctive aroma. In our study, chromosome-level genome assemblies for two sandalwood species (Santalum album and Santalum yasi) were constructed by integrating NGS short reads, RNA-seq, and Hi-C libraries with PacBio HiFi long reads. The S. album and S. yasi genomes were both assembled into 10 pseudochromosomes with a length of 229.59 Mb and 232.64 Mb, containing 21,673 and 22,816 predicted genes and a repeat content of 28.93% and 29.54% of the total genomes, respectively. Further analyses resolved a Santalum-specific whole-genome triplication event after divergence from ancestors of the Santalales lineage Malania, yet due to dramatic differences in transposon content, the Santalum genomes were only one-sixth the size of the Malania oleifera genome. Examination of RNA-seq data revealed a suite of genes that are differentially expressed in haustoria and might be involved in host hemiparasite interactions. The two genomes presented here not only provide an important comparative dataset for studying genome evolution in early diverging eudicots and hemiparasitic plants but will also hasten the application of conservation genomics for a lineage of trees recovering from decades of overexploitation.
