Pre-symposium Topics – Monday, June 2

Organized by Professor Ting-Feng Yeh (NC State University) with two teams from NC State University and BOKU University (Austria).

  • Lignin biosynthesis, structure and reaction
    • Lignin structures and heterogeneity (basic chemical components of cell wall, lignin localization in cell wall, lignin monomer structure in different species and cell types)
    • Lignification of cell walls (biosynthesis, polymerization, linkages and lignin-polysaccharide complexes)
    • Reactions of lignin (lignin reaction in acidic and alkali conditions, etc.)
  • Lignin analysis with various techniques
