Figure 9
Lignin quantification of field and glasshouse grown plant. Lignin deposition was visualized under the light microscope using safranin staining after cross-sectioning of the stem. (a) Dense color indicates higher lignin (arrow) in FD samples and lighter color indicates lower lignin deposition in GH samples. (b) Absorbance measured at 280 nm for indication of relative lignin content between FD and GH.
