Fig. 8From: The in vivo impact of MsLAC1, a Miscanthus laccase isoform, on lignification and lignin composition contrasts with its in vitro substrate preferenceLignin (a) and structural sugar contents (b) of mature stems from different Arabidopsis lines. Insoluble lignin (IL) and acid-soluble lignin (ASL) contents (% weight) were determined in mature stems of wild type, double mutant and complemented double, respectively. Plant materials from 3 to 4 plants were pooled as one replicate. Three replicates were then measured independently. Bars indicate mean ± SD of the replicates. Student’s t-test was used to determine significant differences for total lignin and sugar contents: *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001Back to article page
