Xylem-derived Pinus radiata cell cultures, which can be induced to differentiate tracheary elements (TEs), were transformed with an RNAi construct designed to silence cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD), an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of monolignols. Quantitative enzymatic CAD measurements
Severe suppression of 4-coumarate-coenzyme A ligase (4CL) in the coniferous gymnosperm Pinus radiata substantially affected plant phenotype and resulted in dwarfed plants with a "bonsai tree-like" appearance. Microscopic analyses of stem sections from 2-year-old plants revealed substantial
The Pd/C-catalysed hydrogenolysis of in-situ and isolated lignins from Pinus radiata wood was investigated to gain a more complete understanding of the factors affecting yield and composition of the hydrogenolysis products. Such hydrogenolysis products could potentially be refined into aromatic
