This invention relates to a method of modulating the biomass of plants comprising incorporating into the genome of a said plant a DNA which modulates the production or function of an endogenous plant cinnamoyl CoA reductase gene (CCR). The gene for CCR is involved in the production of lignin in plants. Its modulation can be obtained by gene silencing via sense or antisense downregulation or cosuppression.
L'invention concerne un procédé de modulation de la biomasse de plantes caractérisé par l'insertion, dans le génome d'une plante, d'un ADN qui module la production ou la fonction d'un gène endogène codant la cinnamoyl CoA réductase (CCR) de plante. Ledit gène codant la CCR est impliqué dans la production de lignine chez les plantes. Sa modulation peut être obtenue par l'inhibition du gène via la régulation négative sens ou antisens ou la co-suppresion.
