Increased saccharification efficiency of DX15::PdGA20ox1-2A-PtrMYB3 poplars. a Contents of cell wall components. Main stems of transgenic and WT poplars grown in LMO field for 3 months (upper panel) and 2 years (lower panel) were analyzed (see, method). Error bars indicate S.D. (n = 3). b Measurement of saccharification efficiency from WT and transgenic poplars. Saccharification efficiency was estimated by analyzing the glucose content produced by cell wall materials of woody stems of poplar plants after water (upper panel) or NaOH (lower panel) treatment for the indicated time (see Methods). Error bars indicate S.D. (n = 8). Unpaired Student’s t-test, P-value * (P < 0.05), ** (P < 0.01), *** (P < 0.001)
