  1. 1. Cellular Control and Physiological Importance of Vascular Lignification

    Författare :Leonard Blaschek; Edouard Pesquet; Richard Sibout; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; växtfysiologi; Plant Physiology;

    Sammanfattning : Lignin is indispensable for vascular plants. It allows their cells to coalesce into gravity-defying giants, hardens them to withstand pressures and predators, and waterproofs them to allow the flow of water only where it is advantageous. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Cellular Lignin Distribution Patterns and their Physiological Relevance

    Författare :Leonard Blaschek; Edouard Pesquet; András Gorzsás; Annelie Carlsbecker; Ulla Westermark; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The diverse morphological shapes of plants are made possible by the structural rigidity provided by cell walls. In order to support vertical growth and long distance water transport, cell walls need to resist a variety of biological and physical stresses. LÄS MER

  4. 3. A biomimicking approach for hemicellulose processing

    Författare :Petri Oinonen; Gunnar Henriksson; Edouard Pesquet; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanical pulping; Hemicellulose; Cross-linking; Lignin-carbohydrate-complex; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Lignocellulose can become the best opportunity for the society to reduce its dependency on the harmful petroleum based products as well as to produce clean energy. In each part of the production cycle, biomass based products have a better environmental profiles than their petroleum based counterparts. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Cellular Aspects of Lignin Biosynthesis in Xylem Vessels of Zinnia and Arabidopsis

    Författare :Henrik Serk; Edouard Pesquet; Simon Hawkins; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lignin; tracheary elements; xylem wood; post-mortem lignification; non-cell autonomous process; xylem parenchyma; endoreplication; reactive oxygen species; laccases; peroxidases; molecular cell biology; molekylär cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Lignin is the second most abundant biopolymer on earth and is found in the wood (xylem) of vascular land plants. To transport the hydro-mineral sap, xylem forms specialized conduit cells, called tracheary elements (TEs), which are hollow dead cylinders reinforced with lateral secondary cell walls (SCW). LÄS MER
