説明
Abstract Coniferyl aldehyde was converted to a wine-red lignin polymer with peroxidase/H2O2. Color of the lignin was very similar to that of lignified tissues of transgenic tobacco plants with an antisense gene of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD; Schuch, 1993). Experimental results suggested that the red-brown color of lignified tissues of the transgenic plants is ascribed to the extendedly conjugated coniferyl aldehyde groups of abnormal lignin derived from dehydrogenative polymerization of coniferyl aldehyde. The result also showed that lignin content of the transgenic plants does not decrease but the red-brown lignin predominant with coniferyl aldehyde groups is easily digested by Kraft cooking in paper mills. The red-brown wood is expected to be used for furnitures without staining.
