Meanings of lignified in English

Bean pods, asparagus, and broccoli begin to use their sugar to make tough lignified fibers.

The only remedy for this kind of toughness is to peel away the lignified areas.

Combining the fluorescence and FT-IR information yielded the conclusion that enzymes did not bind to lignified cell walls, which were consequently not degraded.

Cells first elongate their primary wall, then lay down a lignified secondary wall, which is often followed by digestion of the primary wall.

The vascular tissue of transgenic lines became lignified earlier than in WT plants and also showed an increased accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
