“…4‐coumarate‐CoA ligase is a key enzyme in biosynthetic pathways such as plant flavonoids and ligninin in Populus (Cao et al, 2020). Dirigent protein not only plays an important role in the synthesis of plant secondary metabolites, but also participates in the plant stress resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana (Modolo et al, 2020). Hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT) divides the mass flux to H, G and S units in monolignol biosynthesis and affects lignin content in Populus (Chao et al, 2021).…”

Arctium lappa has a long medicinal and edible history with great economic importance.Here, the first high-quality chromosome-level draft genome of A. lappa was presented by the Illumina and PacBio sequencing data. The assembled genome was approximately 1.79 Gb with a N50 contig size of 6.88 Mb. Approximately 1.70 Gb (95.4%) of the contig sequences were anchored onto 18 chromosomes using Hi-C data; the scaffold N50 was improved to be 91.64 Mb. Furthermore, we obtained 1.12 Gb (68.46%) of repetitive sequences and 32,771 protein-coding genes; 616 positively selected candidate genes were identified. Among candidate genes related to lignan biosynthesis, the following were found to be highly correlated with the accumulation of arctiin: 4-coumarate-CoA ligase (4CL), dirigent protein (DIR), and hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT). Additionally, we compared the transcriptomes of A. lappa roots at three different developmental stages and identified 8,943 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in these tissues. These data can be utilized to identify genes related to A. lappa quality or provide a basis for molecular identification and comparative genomics among related species.

The honeycomb structure stands out as an exemplary material, characterized by its remarkable combination of lightweight and superior mechanical strength. Drawing inspiration from the roles of cellulose nanofiber and lignin in natural wood, a novel high‐stiffness biomass honeycomb nanocomposite is developed. This composite is engineered by incorporating lignin into bacterial cellulose, followed by the self‐polycondensation of lignin at elevated temperature. The nanocomposite architecture features intricately interwoven nanofibers to provide a robust long‐range framework, while the self‐polymerized lignin through coniferyl alcohol radicals serves as a rigid binder that interlinks the nanofibers. The dual mechanisms endow the material with exceptional tensile strength and rigidity. Molding this nanocomposite into a honeycomb structure yields a material with outstanding mechanical properties that outperform commercial alternatives, including those derived from Nomex paper and aluminum alloys. Given its characteristics, this nanocomposite holds great promise as a substrate for the next generation of high‐performance structural materials.
