Open AccessAltered lignocellulose chemical structure and molecular assembly in CINNAMYL ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE-deficient rice
Lignin is a complex phenylpropanoid polymer deposited in plant cell walls. Lignin has long been recognized as an important limiting factor for the polysaccharide-oriented biomass utilizations. To mitigate lign...

Cinnamyl Alcohol Dehydrogenase Deficiency Causes the Brown Midrib Phenotype in Rice
Because lignin encrusts lignocellulose polysaccharides, it presents obstacles to chemical pul**, forage digestion, and enzymatic hydrolysis of plant cell wall polysaccharides for biorefining. Hence, it would...

The expression of a rice secondary wall-specific cellulose synthase gene, OsCesA7, is directly regulated by a rice transcription factor, OsMYB58/63
A rice MYB transcription factor, OsMYB58/63, was found to directly upregulate the expression of a rice secondary wall-specific cellulose synthase gene, cellulose synthase A7 ...
