Stem tissues from the hybrid poplarPopulus tremula × P. albaclone 717-1B4 and from lectin receptor-like kinase overexpression lines PP7 and PP19 were individually colonized with the ectomycorrhizal fungiLaccaria bicolorstrain S238N,Hyaloscypha finlandicastrain PMI746, orUmbelopsis vinaceastrain PMI3018, as well as with a mixed fungal inoculum; non-inoculated plants served as controls. Plants were grown in a greenhouse at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and harvested in January 2025. Stem samples were analyzed using Pyrolysis–Molecular Beam Mass Spectrometry (Py-MBMS). Stems were harvested, debarked, dried, milled, destarched and ethanol extracted prior to analysis. Py-MBMS analysis was conducted using approximately 4 mg of wood from biomass and each sample was analyzed in duplicate. A Frontier PY2020 unit pyrolyzed samples at 500°C for 30 s in 80 µL deactivated stainless steel cups. An Extrel Super-Sonic MBMS Model Max 1000 was used to collect mass spectral data fromm/z30 to 450 at 17 eV and processed using Merlin Automation software (V3). Spectral ion intensities were normalized to the total ion chromatogram signal for each sample for analysis of spectral variance. Lignin content (wt %) was estimated based on relative responses from standards of known Klason lignin content using mean-normalized ion intensities ofm/z120, 124 (G), 137 (G), 138 (G), 150 (G), 152, 154 (S), 164 (G), 167 (S), 168 (S), 178 (G), 180, 181, 182 (S), 194 (S), 208 (S) and 210 (S) where G indicates guaiacyl-derived ions, S indicates syringyl-derived ions, and other ions either derive from other lignin monomers or multiple sources. Ratios of S and G lignin monomer units (S/G) were obtained by dividing the sum of S-based ions by the sum of G-based ions using mean-normalized ion intensities.
