Genetic complexity of miscanthus cell wall composition and biomass quality for biofuels

Abstract Background Miscanthus sinensis is a high yielding perennial grass species with great potential as a bioenergy feedstock. One of the challenges that currently impedes commercial cellulosic biofuel production is the technical difficulty to efficiently convert lignocellulosic biomass into biof...
