Lignins : biosynthesis, biodegradation and bioengineering /
Lignins are Nature's aromatic polymers and are the second most abundant organic constituents of the biosphere, next to cellulose. Lignification mainly occurs in the walls of terrestrial vascular plants, mainly in the secondarily thickened cells of supportive or conductive tissues which thus acq...
