As plants do not possess a mechanism to degrade lignins, lignification represents a significant, non-recoverable investment of carbon and energy. |
|
Roots may also be closely associated with other organisms, such as soil biota or symbionts, and differ in their degree of lignification. |
|
It seems to be associated with lignification of host endodermis and pericycle cells at the penetration site. |
|
Moreover, as fruit ripens, the achenes undergo a strong lignification of their thick pericarp. |
|
It then lays its eggs in the folds of the leaf, which dries up and hampers ripening and lignification. |
|
Growing conditions, such as temperature and moisture will also affect lignification and NDF digestibility. |
|
Symptoms included veinal yellowing, veinal necrosis, dried flower clusters and reduced lignification of canes. |
|
A major decrease in the number of berries, defective sugar formation, delayed ripening, poor lignification, reduced resistance to frost. |
|
Increased rates of suberization and lignification in the exodermis may lead to a greater resistance to the entry of materials into the root apoplast. |
|
Oily lesions 37 mm long are sometimes seen on the involucre and shell before lignification. |
|
In general, grasses and corn silage will have higher NDF digestibility than legumes due to less lignification. |
|
It also affects the sugar content of fruits, lowering their acidity for saturation and raising the content of glucose, and it affects the lignification. |
|
Phenolic acids are directly involved in responses to external stress, like pests, and they contribute to healing by lignification of wounded plant tissues. |
|
Another group declares that lignification is just like protein building, a process that's predictable and leaves few surprises. |
|
As is true of other monocotyledons, woodiness or lignification does not develop from the annual production of lignified layers of tissue as in broad-leaved trees of such dicotyledons as oaks and maples. |
|
Growing hemp to the stage that mature seeds are present compromises the quality of the fiber, because of lignification in the stem. |
|
Indeed, the rapid lignification of the cell wall of resistant plants under the appressoria of Colletotrichum spp. |
|
Some of them differ only in the degree of lignification, and others undergo such phenotypical modifications that they can be recognized taxonomically as different species. |
|
Lignification completely prevents digestion of xylem and tracheary tissues of legumes. |
