Antisense down-regulation of 4CL expression alters lignification, tree growth and saccharification potential of field-grown poplar

Creator:

Voelker, Steven L., Lachenbruch, Barbara, Meinzer, Frederick C., Jourdes, Michael, Ki, Chanyoung, Patten, Ann M., Davin, Laurence B., Lewis, Norman G., Tuskan, Gerald A., Gunter, Lee, Decker, Stephen R., Selig, Michael J., Sykes, Robert, Himmel, Michael E., Kitin, Peter, Shevchenko, Olga, and Strauss, Steven H.

Abstract:

Transgenic down-regulation of the Pt4CL1 gene family encoding 4-coumarate:coenzyme A ligase (4CL) has been reported as a means for reducing lignin content in cell walls and increasing overall growth rates, thereby improving feedstock quality for paper and bioethanol production. Using hybrid poplar (Populus tremula 3 Populus alba), we applied this...

Tyloses and phenolic deposits in xylem vessels impede water transport in low-lignin transgenic poplars: a study by cryo-fluorescence microscopy

Creator:

Kitin, Peter, Voelker, Steven L., Meinzer, Frederick C., Beeckman, Hans, Strauss, Steven H., and Lachenbruch, Barbara

Abstract:

Of 14 transgenic poplar genotypes (Populus tremula × Populus alba) with antisense 4-coumarate:coenzyme A ligase that were grown in the field for 2 years, five that had substantial lignin reductions also had greatly reduced xylem-specific conductivity compared with that of control trees and those transgenic events with small reductions in...
