Lignin is a major component of perennial plants and is probably the second most abundant organic polymer on earth, next to cellulose. It is a widespread potential carbon source for both parasitic and saprophytic fungi. Lignin is a term given to a group of closely related, high molecular weight compounds, that are branched polymers of three substituted alcohols: p-coumaryl alcohol, coniferyl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol. 6, record 3, English, - p%2Dcoumaryl%20alcohol
