The effect of lignin structural units on enzymatic hydrolysis lignocellulosic biomass was investigated, especially the inhibitory role in non-productive adsorption with enzymes. Milled wood (MWL) isolated from different hardwoods poplar, eucalyptus and acacia. samples were characterized by elemental analysis, gel permeation chromatography, nitrobenzene oxidation fourier infrared spectroscopy. m...

Poplars (Populus sp.) and willows (Salix sp.) are well known woody plants common throughout the northern hemisphere, both with fully sequenced genomes. They bear compact unisexual inflorescences known as "catkins." Closely related genera of the "salicoid clade" within the family Salicaceae include the Asian genera Bennettiodendron, Idesia, Itoa, Poliothyrsis, and Carrierea and the Central Ameri...

Four highly inducible genes of poplar trees, PtdKTI5, PtdWIN4, PtdPOP3 from hybrid poplar (Populus trichocarpa × P. deltoides) and PtKTI2 from trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) have been individually transformed into Arabidopsis thaliana for overexpression. High transcriptional level of each transgene in transgenic Arabidopsis lines was confirmed by RT-PCR analysis. The development, ...

In the last years the supercritical fluid extraction has been frequently used to obtain volatile oils from aromatic plants. In this work we have applied this technique to a different vegetable matrix: poplar (Populus nigra and MC) buds as it is known that they contain antioxidant compounds. The results of the supercritical extraction have been compared with those of the conventional soxhlet ext...

To investigate the response of poplar hybrids to drought, leaves were collected from plants to which water was suspended for 8 and 13 days. After measuring the respective relative water content, RNAs were isolated from leaves of moderately and severely droughted plants and from control plants, and Illumina RNA sequencing was performed to analyze RNA synthesis in these tissues. Our data provide ...

The effect of acidic hydrolysis duration on nanocellulose size, morphology, and proper ties was investigated, which opens up a whole new horizon versatility in poplar applications. This study aimed to examine Spanish wastes as raw material extract crystalline (CNC), substantiates the importance wastes. Wastes were pulped using 1 L 10% NaOH (wt./wt.) solution, bleached several times by NaClO2; a...
