rubber precursor, or involved in rubber elongation. By generating genome-wide expression data from 11TKS tissues, Lin et al. were able to identify five of these genes that are predominantly expressed in roots and latex. Altogether, these observations identify a strong set of candidate genes thatmay form thebasis both for further enhancement of TKS rubber production and also for establishing a viable NR alternative to the Pará tree.
