Common metabolic networks contribute to carbon sink strength of sorghum internodes: implications for bioenergy improvement
Abstract Background Sorghum bicolor (L.) is an important bioenergy source. The stems of sweet sorghum function as carbon sinks and accumulate large amounts of sugars and lignocellulosic biomass and considerable amounts of starch, therefore providing a model of carbon allocation and accumulation for...
