“…Rice straw often contains significant amounts of starch. Starch content can vary substantially with developmental stage and with other factors, including growth conditions (Matsuki et al 2010;Park et al 2011). Starch content strongly a ects total glucan content in rice straw.…”

A rapid near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy method was established to predict the lignin and starch contents and enzymatic sacchari cation e ciency of transgenic rice (Oryza sativa cv. Nipponbare) straw wherein expression of genes encoding lignin synthetic enzymes are regulated. Strong correlations were obtained between laboratory wet chemistry values and the NIR-predicted values. is method is useful to develop transgenic rice where cell-wall formation is engineered.

“…The temperature for conducting the process should be less than 100°C, depending on the gelatinizing properties of starch granules in rice straw as well as the thermo-tolerance of contaminating microorganisms. Careful characterization of starch is needed for process optimization because the melting temperature of rice-straw starch granules significantly differs depending on the cultivar (Matsuki et al, 2010).…”

“…5) Lignocellulosic biomass is generally made up of a tightly-packed matrix of cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin. 6) Wheat straw contains 34-40% cellulose, 30-35% hemicelluloses, and 14-15% lignin forming a complex structure. 7) It can consequently be an attractive feedstock to increase the production of ethanol fuel.…”
