Tension wood is widespread in woody plants and displays significant structural differences compared with opposite wood.<br \/>\n<strong>Aims<\/strong> The study was designed to clarify the relationship between pore structure and gas permeability in poplar tension wood.<br \/>\n<strong>Methods<\/strong> The gas permeability was measured using a self-made device. The meso- and macroporosity characteristics were measured by nitrogen adsorption\u2013desorption and mercury intrusion porosimetry. The flow was simulated using ANSYS Fluent software to illustrate the role of pore structure on permeability.<br \/>\n<strong>Results<\/strong> The morphological features of vessels have an effect on wood permeability. Compared with tension wood, opposite wood, which has higher vessel ratio, larger cell lumen diameter, and more rich pits, shows stronger gas permeability. Increasing the airflow path will actually reduce the gas permeability. The simulation results are consistent with the experimental results.<br \/>\n<strong>Conclusion<\/strong> In hardwoods, the gas permeability in the longitudinal direction is mainly dictated by the vessels. The high fiber ratio and rich mesopore in tension wood do not significantly increase gas flow, suggesting the permeability of wood was actually determined by the cell tissue with macroporous porosity. Vessel tissue ratio, length and diameter, and intervessel pit size were found responsible for influencing the permeability in the longitudinal direction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong><br \/>\nPoplar; Tension wood; Air permeability; Nitrogen permeability; Pore structure; Flow simulation<\/p>\n<div class='altmetric-embed' data-badge-type='donut' data-doi='10.1007\/s13595-020-00994-6'  style='float: right; ' ><\/div>\n<p><strong>Publication<\/strong><br \/>\nTan, Y., Hu, J., Chang, S. et al.
