Vanillin from agrowaste: Vanillin is one of the most important flavor additives in the world. Since the demand of natural vanillin cannot be met only from vanilla pod extraction, biotechnological processes based on microorganisms become more and more relavent. In this book, we describe the isolation process, characterization and identification of Streptomyces LM004 as a potent bio-transformer of feruloyl esters from de-starched wheat bran into vanillin. The strain exhibits ability to convert feruloyl esters into ferulic acid through FEase activity and then convert ferulic acid into...

Pollinia is a cohesive mass of pollen. We aim to evaluate the evolutionary trends of pollen morphology within the genus Dendrobium in the light of molecular phylogeny and to test whether pollen morphology may be considered as predictor of inter- and/or intra-specific phylogenetic relationship. A systematic study of 18 species from North-East India was conducted by means of numerical analysis based on 12 micrmorphometric descriptors and SEM ultra-structure. A phylogenetic tree from ribosomal ITS2 sequences was used as reference. Variations in the shape of pollinia were distinct and consistent...
