Genetic variation of biomass recalcitrance in a natural Salix viminalis (L.) population

Abstract Background Salix spp. are high-productivity crops potentially used for lignocellulosic biofuels such as bioethanol. In general, pretreatment is needed to facilitate the enzymatic depolymerization process. Biomass resistance to degradation, i.e., biomass recalcitrance, is a trait which can b...
