Maximize accumulation of valuable bioproducts in cardoon cell-based biorafinery using biotechnological approaches. Gene over-expression, RNAi and/or CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing on seed/leaf derived calli will be directed to i) increase monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) for producing bioplastics, bioadditives, lubricants, etc. and ii) modify lignin composition for recovery of different biologically active polyphenols, as well as for higher digestibility and availability of cellulose to enzymatic degradation and fermentation.

Abstract

Maximize accumulation of valuable bioproducts in cardoon cell-based biorafinery using biotechnological approaches. Gene over-expression, RNAi and/or CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing on seed/leaf derived calli will be directed to i) increase monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) for producing bioplastics, bioadditives, lubricants, etc. and ii) modify lignin composition for recovery of different biologically active polyphenols, as well as for higher digestibility and availability of cellulose to enzymatic degradation and fermentation.
