Narrative
BN611, A/B612, and RN613 have stacked brown midrib genes bmr-6 and bmr-12. Release of these genetic stocks makes stacked brown midrib genes reported to reduce the activity of two enzymes important in lignin synthesis, cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (bmr-6) and O-methyl transferase (bmr-12), available in a common forage sorghum, a common grain sorghum seed parent, and a common grain sorghum pollen parent background. The genetic stocks have immediate application for basic research involving lignin synthesis.
