Comprehensive analysis of the Caffeic acid O-methyltransferase gene family in kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) and their expression characteristics in response to salinity stress
{{output}}
Caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (COMT) catalyzes the penultimate methylation in monolignol biosynthesis, controlling lignin composition and abiotic-stress tolerance. Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.), a fast bast-fiber crop rich in lignin, is valued for its mech... ...
