Total sugar yields for transgenic aspen lines and wild-type after acidic pretreatment

Line Total sugar yields (pretreatment liquid and enzymatic hydrolysate)
Y Hexoses/W (g g -1 ) a Y Pentoses/W (g g -1 ) b Y Total/Wv (g g -1 ) c
Wild-type

The % values represent the sugar yield in comparison with wild-type (WT). Means ± standard error, n = 5 biological replicates. aYield of hexoses (g of Gal, Glc, and Man) per g of wood after pretreatment and after 72 h of enzymatic hydrolysis. bYield of pentoses (g of Ara and Xyl) per g of wood after pretreatment and after 72 h of enzymatic hydrolysis. cYield of monosaccharides (g of Ara, Gal, Glc, Man and Xyl) per g of wood after pretreatment and after 72 h of enzymatic hydrolysis. Asterisks (by means for individual lines) indicate yields significantly different from WT when analyzed by post analysis-of-variance (ANOVA) t-test or means (for WT) that were significantly different from both lines by post ANOVA contrast. **P ≤5%, ***P ≤1%.
