CA 2211665

A cDNA molecule encoding coniferin .beta.-glucosidase is disclosed. This enzyme catalyzes one of the last steps in the synthesis of lignin in plants. Plants having modified lignin content may be produced by transformation with this cDNA (or parts of the cDNA), for example, in either "sense" or "antisense" orientation. The invention includes methods of altering lignin content in plants using this cDNA, as well as transformed plants, such as conifers, having modified lignin content.

Divulgation concernant une molécule d'ADNc codant la bêta-glucosidase de la coniférine. Cette enzyme catalyse l'une des dernières étapes de la synthèse de la lignine chez les plantes. Des plantes à teneur modifiée en lignine peuvent être produites par transformation grâce à cet ADNc (ou des parties de l'ADNc), par exemple dans leur orientation ou bien « sens » ou bien « antisens ». L'invention divulgue des méthodes pour modifier la teneur en lignine chez les plantes grâce à cet ADNc, et porte également sur des plantes transformées, comme les conifères, dont la teneur en lignine est modifiée.
