The present work was undertaken to investigate the anatomical and chemical characteristics of transgenic poplar down-regulated with antisense OMT gene. Also the distribution of lignin in transgenic poplar trees was investigated at cellular level. No visible abnormal phenotype was observed in the fibers and vessel elements of transgenic poplar. Any marked differences in the staining intensities of Wiesner and Mäule color reaction were not identified in the transgenic poplar. TEM micrographs did not show any staining intensities in the cell walls stained with KMnO₄. Interestingly, the UV spectroscopy of semi-thin sections exhibited a distinct decrease of lignin absorption at 280 nm in the vessel walls, indicating transgenic poplar wood with lower amount of guaiacyl lignin in vessel elements. Chemical composition of antisense OMT poplar was almost identical to that of wild-type poplar. Klason lignin content of transgenic poplar did not show any significant difference from that of the controls. The solid state NMR spectra revealed the transgenic poplar with only slightly more syringyl lignin than the control. The present work showed that antisense OMT gene constructed in the poplar was not enough to reduce the overall content of Klason lignin, and suggested that the expression of transformation was confined to vessel walls.

To clarify the effects of several carbohydrates on the biodegradation of lignin by Pleurotus ostreatus. The strain was cultured on the media formulated with lignin and carbohydrates such as cellulose, xylan, collobiose, glucose and xylose, which was added individually. The culture mixtures grown 36 days were filtered and then estimated the degree of lignin biodegradation. It was found that the growth of P. ostreatus was stimulated and the depoly-merization was also increased by the addition of carbohydrates. When the carbohydrates were not added, polymerization was apparent in stead of depolymerization. In the case of glucose as an added carbohydrate, the content of lignin by the nitrosolignin method was greatly (about 7.4 times) decreased than control which contains lignin as a carbon source. The peak of lignin at 280nm in UV spectra was decreased about 27% after 27 days of culture. As results, it was assumed that lignin biodegradation was correlated to the carbohydrates and especially glucose was very significant role in lignin degradation.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of autohydrolysis and extraction conditions on the separation of the chemical substances, the extractability of lignin by dioxane, and the yield of reducing sugars from cellulosic substrates by using a commercial cellulase derived from Trichoderma viride. Air-dried wood meals through 0.42mm (40 mesh) screen and retained on 0.25 mm (60 mesh) of Populus alba-glandulosa and Pinus koraiensis were autohydrolyzed with water at $180^{\circ}C$ for 30 and/or 60 minutes in a 6 liter stainless-steel digester with or without 2% 2-naphthol. The hydrothermally-treated wood meals were extracted the lignin with 100%, 90%, 75% and 50% dioxane solutions at $70^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours, respectively. The results obtained were as follows; 1) After autohydrolysis of Populus alba-glandulosa, the yield of wood meals decreased with lengthening the auto hydrolysis time from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and with 2% 2-naphthol addition. In case of Pinus koraiensis, the yield was not affected by 2%, 2-naphthol addition at the autohydrolysis in the digester. 2) After autohydrolysis and lignin extraction of Populus alba-glandulosa, the yield of wood meals decreased with lengthening the autohydrolysis time from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and with 2% 2-naphthol addition. Extraction of 50% dioxane solution was the best solvent for the yield among the solutions of 100%, 90%. 75% and 50% dioxane. In case of Pinus koraiensis, the yield was not affected by 2% 2-naphthol addition and the solution of 90% dioxane was the poorest solvent for the yield. 3) After autohydrolysis and lignin extraction of Populus alba-glandulosa, the Klason lignin content in cellulosic substrates for enzymatic hydrolysis decreased with lengthening the autohydrolysis time from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and with 2% 2-naphthol addition. Klason lignin content was the lowest after extraction by 90% or 75% dioxane solution. The content was also affected by interaction of the three factors-autohydrolysis time, 2% 2-naphthol addition and concentration of dioxane. In case of Pinus koraiensis, the Klason lignin content increased with 2% 2-naphthol addition but was not affected by the concentration of dioxane solution. 4) After autohydrolysis and lignin extraction of Populus alba-glandulosa, the extractable Klason lignin content by extraction increased with lengthening the auto hydrolysis time from 30 minutes to 60 minutes and with 2% 2-naphthol addition. The extractable lignin content was the highest after extraction by 90% or 75% dioxane solution. In case of Pinus koraiensis, the extractable lignin content increased with 2% 2-naphthol addition. Extractions by 100%, 90% and 50% dioxane solutions were more effective for the extraction of Klason lignin than by 75% dioxane solution. 5) After autohydrolysis and lignin extraction of Populus alba-glandulosa, the yield of reducing sugars increased with lengthening the autohydrolysis time from 30 minutes to 60 minutes but was not affected by 2% 2-naphthol addition and the concentration of dioxane. The yield of reducing sugars after enzymatic hydrolysis was slightly higher by extractions with 90%, 75% and 50% dioxane solutions than with 100% dioxane. In case of Pinus koraiensis, the yield of reducing sugars was not affected by 2% 2-naphthol addition but affected by the concentration of dioxane. The yield of reducing sugars was the highest in cellulosic substrates extracted by 100% dioxane solution.

This paper examines the physico-chemical properties and structural features of thio lignin and alcohol lignin preparations extracted from fast-growing poplar wood. The lignin preparations were characterized using UV, IR and alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation methods. The yield was higher in thiolignin due to its preparation from wood under drastic alkaline conditions and almost the total amount of alkaline degraded lignin was precipitated except acid soluble lignin. In case of ethanol lignin, structural modifications were comparatively less and form a cream colored lignin more or less similar to its original natural color. The methoxyl values were higher due to syringyl unit present in hard wood lignin in addition to guaicyl unit present in soft wood. The higher values of methoxyl content of isolated lignin revealed that it was built up of high syringyl units. The elementary analysis, methoxyl group and hydroxyl groups were presented by $C_{9}$ formula indicated that it was made up of phenyl propane monomers. Nitrobenzene oxidation of thio lignin and ethanol lignin yield more or less the chromatograms of similar pattern, except difference in relative percentage. The ultra violet spectra of lignins were quite similar, irrespective of the source and method of isolation. Infrared spectroscopy studies of poplar deltoides, thio and ethanol lignin shown different absorption bands which have been utilized for structural investigations.

비만치료식 개발을 위한 기초연구로서, 해조류, 특히 미역, 다시마 등 갈조류에 $20{\sim}30\%$ 함유하고 있는 알긴산의 비만에 미치는 영향을 이미 연구되어있는 agar, cellulose, CMC, chitin, lignin 등의 식물섬유의 비만억제작용과 비교하기 위하여 margarine으로 비만을 유도시킨 흰쥐를 사용, 이들 식물섬유들의 비만억제작용에 미치는 영향을 비교, 검토하여 몇 가지 유의성있는 결과를 얻었다. 이들 식물섬유첨가($10\%$)의 비만억제효과를 체중증가량으로 보면 lignin이 가장 효과적이었고 (P<0.001). 그다음이 Na-alginate 였으며(P<0.01), 사료효율로 보면 lignin이 가장 효과적이었고, 그 다음이 CMC, Na-alginate의 순이었다(P<0.001). 간장과 부역환 및 난소 주위의 지방조직에 있어서 지방축적억제효과는 lignin이 가장 효과적이었고, 그 다음이 Na-alginate, cellulose, CMC의 순이었다(P<0.001). 또 Lee index에 의한 비만억제효과를 비교하여 보면 Na-alginate>lignin>CMC>chitin>cellulose의 순이었으며(P<0.001), 간장의 지질함양 분석에 의한 지방축적억제효과를 비교하여 보면 agar>CMC>cellulose>Na-alginate>chitin>lignin의 순으로 효과적임을 알 수 있었다(P<0.001). 식물섬유 첨가에 의한 혈청 glucose 감소효과는CMC가 가장 효과적이었고, 그 다음이 Na-alginate, lignin의 순이었으며(P<0.001), 혈청 cholesterol 저하작용은 Na-alginate가 가장 효과적이었고 그 다음이 lignin, cellulose의 순이었으며 그밖에 chitin을 제외한 대부분이 효과가 있었다. 또한 lipase 활성의 상승작용을 보면 Na-alginate가 가장 효과적이었고 그 다음이 chitin이었다. 따라서 lignin은 목질소로서 나무의 목질부의 주성분이기 때문에 실제 식품으로서 섭취가 쉽지 않기 때문에 미역, 다시마 등 갈조류의 $20-30\%$ 함유하고 있는 알긴산이 비만의 예방과 치료에 가장 효과적인 것으로 생각된다.

The amount of non-lignin components in unbleached and oxygen-delignified kraft pulps and their impact on lignin determinations was investigated. The lignin analyses investigated were kappa number and Klason lignin in conjunction with acid-soluble lignin. The species investigated were loblolly pine, and aspen. The non-lignin components that impacted on lignin determination were residual extractives and hexenuronic acid in unbleached and oxygen-delignified kraft pulps. In the hardwoods, significant amounts of extractives remained after kraft pulping and oxygen delignification. These residual extractives in the hardwood pulps had an impact on the lignin determination, more so on the acid lignin method than kappa number. Hexenuronic acid only impacts on kappa number determination both softwood and hardwood pulps, not on acid lignin. Hexeneuronic acid contributed as lignin content more in aspen than pine pulps, and more in oxygen-delignified than unbleached kraft pulps. Impact of hexenuronic acid on should be corrected both softwood and hardwood pulps for accurate kappa number.

본 연구에서는 백색부후균 Abortiporus biennis를 이용하여 유기용매 리그닌의 생물학적 변환을 시도함으로써, 생물학적 변환 기작을 이해하고, 상업적 활용을 위해 유기용매 리그닌의 저분자화를 유도하고자 하였다. 질소제한 배지에서 A. biennis는 주로 유기용매 리그닌의 중합반응을 유도하면서, 분자량을 급격히 증가시켰으며, 배양일에 따라 구조적 차이를 야기하였다. 배양 초기, ether 결합의 분해를 통해 phenolic OH 함량이 증가한 반면, 배양 후기에는 ether 결합이 증가함에 따라 phenolic OH 함량이 감소하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로, 유기용매 리그닌의 탈중합을 유도하기 위해 환원제인 ascorbic acid를 첨가하여 유기용매 리그닌의 구조 변화 및 변환 산물을 분석하였다. 결과적으로, 환원제의 첨가에 의해 유기용매 리그닌의 분자량은 소폭 증가하였지만, 환원제 무첨가 실험에 비해 그 증가 폭이 현저히 감소하였다. 또한 배양액 내 리그닌 올리고머의 경우, 배양 10일째 환원제를 첨가한 실험구에서 중량 평균 분자량 381 Da, phenolic OH 함량 38.63%을 나타냈으며, 이는 저분자화된 형태로 상업적 활용 가치가 높다고 사료된다. 결론적으로, A. biennis의 효소 시스템은 유기용매 리그닌의 분해보다 중합을 야기하였으며, 환원제의 첨가를 통해 배양액 내 리그닌 올리고머의 저분자화 및 phenolic OH 함량 증가를 유도할 수 있었다.

Lignin modification has been a breeding target for the improvements of forage digestibility and fermentation in whole crop silage(WCS) rice. In rice, gold hull and internode 2 (gh2) was identified as a lignin-deficient mutant. gh2 exhibits a reddish-brown pigmentation in the hull and the internode is located on the short arm of chromosome 2 and codes for cinnamyl-alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD). To develop WCS rice variety improved digestibility and fermentation, we measured acid detergent fiber (ADF), lignin and total digestible nutrient (TDN) calculated from ADF (TDN=88.9-(0.79% × ADF) and performed marker-assisted selection using CAD(Os2g0187800) gene first intron region specific marker with 55 Jungmo1038/J.collection lines. Those lines had lignin content range from 0.82 to 6.61%, ADF from 15.8 to 45.8%, TDN from 52.7 to 78.8 compared to 'Jungmo1038'(1.53,20.7,72.6), 'J.collection'(0.98,12.8,78.8%) and gh2 were introgressed into 44 lines. Considering on these genotype and low-lignin phenotype, we finally selected 2 elite lines(Suweon668, Suweon669). Suweon668 and Suweon669 line are high biomass-low lignin lines that the ADF content is relatively low, even though the dry matter weight is high. Also they have lodging and shattering resistance and glabrous leaf and hull important to improve cattle palatability. Our results will provide that rice can be improved for forage digestibility and fermentation with low lignin concentration.
