Silencing CHALCONE SYNTHASE in maize impedes the incorporation of tricin into lignin and increases lignin content [PDF]
Lignin is a phenolic heteropolymer that is deposited in secondary-thickened cell walls, where it provides mechanical strength. A recent structural characterization of cell walls from monocot species showed that the flavone tricin is part of the native ...

Straw biomass - potential raw material for ethanol production [PDF]
Barley straw was found to be suitable raw material for ethanol production. Straw could be easily pre-treated with steam explosion, hydrolysed to monosaccharides and fermented to ethanol.

Linkage Mapping of Stem Saccharification Digestibility in Rice [PDF]
Rice is the staple food of almost half of the world population, and in excess 90% of it is grown and consumed in Asia, but the disposal of rice straw poses a problem for farmers, who often burn it in the fields, causing health and environmental problems.

Effects of pH and temperature on glucose production from tapioca starch using enzymatic hydrolysis : a statistical approach [PDF]
The aim of this study was to maximize the glucose concentration produced from enzymatic hydrolysis of tapioca starch. The tapioca starch was enzymatically hydrolyzed using α-amylase from Bacillus lichenformis followed by amyloglucosidase action from ...
