Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation G-lignin and S-lignin occurred in alfalfa stems, leaves and petioles.
- Observation Lignin deposition rose in descending internodes.
- Observation NDF, ADF and ADL increased from top to bottom of the stem.
- Observation Leaf ADL content followed a similar increase.
- Method / resource RNA sequencing identified 8074 leaf DEGs.
- Method / resource RNA sequencing identified 7752 stem DEGs.
- Observation Phenylpropanoid biosynthesis was the most enriched pathway in leaves and stems.
- Method / resource Network analysis identified 134 key lignin regulatory genes.
- Observation MsNST1 was highly expressed in old leaves and stems.
- Observation G- and S-lignin deposition differed across wild type, nst1 mutants and overexpression lines.
- Observation Lignin synthesis gene transcription differed among those materials.
- Mechanism Authors infer MsNST1 affects alfalfa lignin synthesis.
