Transformation of tobacco (nicotiana tabacum) with the oil palm cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase 1 (CAD1) gene
Lignification in plants occurs via the lignin biosynthetic pathway that involves a series of enzymes; among these enzymes is the cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD). CAD catalyzes the conversion of hydroxycinnamaldehydes into monolignols. In oil palm, two copies of the CAD gene have been identified...
