Identification of a putative monolignol transporter gene homolog III in Oryza sativa

Lignin is important to plant cell as it gives a strong structure and protects the plants from biotic and abiotic stresses. Lignin is made up from monomers called monolignols. There are three types of monolignols which are p-coumaryl alcohol, coniferyl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol. Monolignols are syn...
