The following properties are required:

The cell wall anatomy of different wood types (tension, normal and opposite) needs to be investigated for the various NZDFI species (principally E. bosistoana). The anatomy study will consist of investigating which species produce a G-layer (microscopy with staining \citep{Qiu_2008}), cell wall architecture (atomic force and electron microscopy), and the MFA and MFA standard deviation in all three wood types (X-ray diffraction). Within tension wood the G-layer (in G-layer producing species) will be removed in order to determine the secondary cell wall properties of tension wood (enzymatic removal).
