SIMYB1 and SIMYB2, two new MYB genes from tomato, transcriptionally regulate cellulose biosynthesis in tobacco

Cellulose, a major constituent of plant biomass, is synthesized by a cellulose synthase complex. It has been demonstrated that MYB genes transcriptionally regulate cellulose synthase in Arabidopsis. However, little is known about this process in tomato. Here, two MYB (SIMYB1/2) and three cellulose s...
