“…than of other wetland Poaceae, such as Glyceria maxima and Phalaris arundinacea (Schoelynck et al, 2010). Heat treatments cause physical, chemical and morphological modifications in wood tissue leading to changes in stability, diffusibility (Hillis, 1984) and sorption capacity (Sik et al, 2010). Furthermore, increased deacetylation (Tjeerdsma and Militz, 2005) and phenol content (Ayadi et al, 2003) have been observed following heat-treatments.…”
