Table 3. Determination of thioacidolysis monomers released from extractive-free mature stems.

Line	Thioacidolysis monomers (μmol.g-1 lignin)	% hydroxy-phenyl	% guaiacyl	% syringyl
mur1-1	1004 (942; 1071)*	1.1 (1.1; 1.3)	70.9 (70.4; 72.5)	27.9 (26.4;28.5)
Wild type	1203 (1105; 1322)	1.1 (1.0; 1.2)	70.6 (10.5; 70.9)	28.3 (27.8; 28.4)

Values are medians of three pools of eight plants separately analysed, with the minimum and maximum given in parentheses. Thioacidolysis yields are expressed in μmol.g^-1 of lignin (measured as Klason lignin).

* indicates a significant difference (Kruskal Wallis test) compared to the wild type value at P<0.05.
