Golden 2-Like () transcription factors play a crucial role in chloroplast development and chlorophyll synthesis in many plant taxa. To date, no systematic analysis of transcription factors in tree species has been conducted. In this study, 40 genes in the genome were identified and divided into seven groups based on the gene structure and motif composition.

Improvements in plant growth can bring great benefits to the forest industry. is an important plantation species worldwide, and given that ploidy increases are often associated with plant phenotype changes, it was reasoned that its polyploidization may have good prospects and great significance toward its cultivation. In this study, the zygotic development period of was observed through paraffin sections, and a correlation between the development time of flower buds after pollination and the zygotic development period was established.
