Study of traits and recalcitrance reduction of field-grown COMT down-regulated switchgrass

BACKGROUND: The native recalcitrance of plants hinders the biomass conversion process using current biorefinery techniques. Down-regulation of the caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene in the lignin biosynthesis pathway of switchgrass reduced the thermochemical and biochemical conversion reca...
