Abstract excerpt
Soluble phenolics, wall-bound phenolics and soluble and core lignin were analyzed in transgenic alfalfa with genetically down-regulated O-methyltransferase genes involved in lignin biosynthesis. High performance liquid chromatography and principal component analysis were used to distinguish metabolic phenotypes of different transgenic alfalfa genotypes growing under standard greenhouse conditions. Principal...
