Identification of enzymatic genes with the potential to reduce biomass recalcitrance through lignin manipulation in Arabidopsis

Abstract Background During the chemical and biochemical decomposition of lignocellulosic biomasses, lignin is highly recalcitrant. Genetic transformation of plants to qualitatively and/or quantitatively modify lignin may reduce these recalcitrant properties. Efficient discovery of genes to achieve l...
