Background: OMT (O-methyltransferase) genes are involved in lignin biosynthesis, which relates to stover cell wall digestibility. Reduced lignin content is an important determinant of both forage quality and ethanol conversion efficiency of maize stover. Results: Variation in genomic sequences coding for COMT, CCoAOMT1, and CCoAOMT2 was analyzed in...
