Woody bamboo is environmentally friendly, abundant, and an alternative to conventional
timber. Degree of lignification and lignin content and deposition affect timber properties …

Lignin is a complex polymer that is embedded in plant cell walls to provide physical support
and water protection. For these reasons, the production of lignin is closely linked with plant …

Abiotic stress is a major environmental factor that limits cotton growth and yield, moreover,
this problem has become more and more serious recently, as multiple stresses often occur …

The mature cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) fiber is a single cell with a typically thickened
secondary cell wall. The aim of this research was to use molecular, spectroscopic and …

The fungal pathogen B otrytis cinerea establishes a necrotrophic interaction with its host
plants, including lettuce (L actuca sativa), causing it to wilt, collapse and eventually dry up …

Downregulation of hydroxycinnamoyl CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT)
in alfalfa (Medicago sativa) reduces lignin levels and improves forage quality and …

Lignin is a heterogeneous polymer of aromatic subunits derived from phenylalanine. It is
polymerized in intimate proximity to the polysaccharide components in plant cell walls and …

Lignin is regarded as the most plentiful aromatic polymer contains both non-phenolic and
phenolic structures. It makes the integral part of secondary wall and plays a significant role …

Main conclusion Regulation of a gene encoding coniferaldehyde 5-hydroxylase leads to
substantial alterations in lignin structure in rice cell walls, identifying a promising genetic …
