Genetic enhancement of lodging resistance in rice due to the key cell wall polymer lignin, which affects stem characteristics

Lodging in crops seriously restricts plant growth and grain production. The genetic modification of cell walls to enhance plant mechanical strength has been suggested as a promising approach toward improving lodging resistance. However, because of the complexity of the plant cell wall, the exact eff...
