OVEREXPRESSION OF CO2-RESPONSIVE CCT PROTEIN, A KEY REGULATOR OF STARCH SYNTHESIS STRIKINGLY INCREASES THE GLUCOSE YIELD FROM RICE STRAW FOR BIOETHANOL PRODUCTION

Overexpression of CO2-responsive CCT protein, a key regulator of starch synthesis strikingly increases the glucose yield from rice straw for bioethanol production

Production of bioethanol from rice straw has attracted attention from the point of effective use of agricultural residue.Starch content is an important determinant for bioethanol production from rice straw.The overexpression of CO2-responsive CCT protein (CRCT), which is the positive regulator of starch synthesis in vegetative organs, notably incre
