Sorghum mutant RG displays antithetic leaf shoot lignin accumulation resulting in improved stem saccharification properties

BACKGROUND: Improving saccharification efficiency in bioenergy crop species remains an important challenge. Here, we report the characterization of a Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) mutant, named REDforGREEN (RG), as a bioenergy feedstock. RESULTS: It was found that RG displayed increased accumulation...
