'''Vascular-related NAC-domain transcription factor''' (VND) is one group of the largest plant-specific transcription factor NAC family. The VND1-VND7 were orginally isolated as genes for which expression levels are elevated during transdifferentiation into trachery elements, in a induction system using Arabidopsis suspension cells <ref name="GENEDEV">http://genesdev.cshlp.org/content/19/16/1855.full.pdf</ref>.In the past several years, VNDs have been intensively investigated in different species and shown to be important switches of the biosynthesis of secondary cell walls that provide textiles, timber, and potentially second-generation bio-fuels for human use<ref name="oxford">http://mplant.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2011/12/01/mp.ssr098.full.pdf+html | '''Vascular-related NAC-domain transcription factor''' or '''NAC domain-containing protein''' (VND) is one group of the largest plant-specific transcription factor NAC family.
