BdGT43B2 functions in xylan biosynthesis and is essential for seedling survival in Brachypodium distachyon

Abstract Xylan is the predominant hemicellulose in the primary cell walls of grasses, but its synthesis and interactions with other wall polysaccharides are complex and incompletely understood. To probe xylan biosynthesis, we generated CRISPR/Cas9 knockout and amiRNA knockdown lines of BdGT43B2, an...
