[EN] During flowering plant reproduction, anthers produce pollen grains, the development of which is supported by the tapetum, a nourishing maternal tissue that also contributes non-cell-autonomously to the pollen wall, ...

The potential of lignocellulosic natural fibres as renewable resources for thermal conversion and material reinforcement is largely dependent on the correlation between their chemical composition, crystalline structure ...

[EN] The use of endoglucanase enzymes as pretreatment of high-yield pulps to produce lignocellulose nanofibrils (LCNFs) has garnered increasing interest at both industrial and scientific levels. However, the lignin present ...

[EN] Seeds are specialized plant organs that carry, nurture, and protect plant offspring. Developmental coordination between the three genetically distinct seed tissues (the embryo, endosperm, and seed coat) is crucial for ...

[ES] El quitosano es uno de los biopolímeros más profundamente estudiados y ha sido objeto de investigación en diversos campos de aplicación en los últimos años, como en la industria, la agricultura, la alimentación y la ...

Within the realm of renewable energies, biomass will play a fundamental role in the coming years, especially due to the rise in the prices of fossil fuels, the doubtful safety of nuclear energy, and the need to reduce CO2 ...

[EN] The thickening of plant organs is supported by secondary growth, a process by which new vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) are produced. Xylem is composed of several cell types, including xylary fibers, parenchyma ...

[EN] Organosolv pulping releases reactive monomers from both lignin and hemicellulose by the cleavage of weak C-O bonds. These monomers recombine to form undesired polymers through the formation of recalcitrant C-C bonds. ...
