Gene stacking of multiple traits for high yield of fermentable sugars in plant biomass

Abstract Background Second-generation biofuels produced from biomass can help to decrease dependency on fossil fuels, bringing about many economic and environmental benefits. To make biomass more suitable for biorefinery use, we need a better understanding of plant cell wall biosynthesis. Increasing...
