New resource pinpoints inner workings of sorghum plant cells for designing better bioenergy feedstock
Phys.org -

Bioenergy sorghum is an important resource for the production of biofuels and bioproducts and a critical component of a sustainable agricultural future. Researchers have been working hard to make this tall, drought-tolerant plant even more productive and resilient to harsh environmental conditions. But those efforts are hampered by a lack of knowledge about the inner working of plant cells, which prevents scientists from giving the proper genetic instructions to modify its key traits—including...
