Q132Stop | mutation responsible for the bmr6 phenotype. Mutation leads to significant reduction in all three main lignin subunits, H-, G-, and S-lignin of 4.8-, 7.3-, and 17.7fold, respectively, relative to the wild type. Lignin subunits S-indene and G-indene are elevated 9.5- and 8.3fold, respectively, in bmr6 relative to the wild type | Sorghum bicolor |

internode | Bmr6 expression in young internodes is significantly higher than CAD4 for all genotypes | Sorghum bicolor | - |
internode | Bmr6 expression in young internodes is significantly higher than CAD4 for all genotypes, but only 4fold to 5fold higher in bmr6 and bmr6 bmr12 internodes. Bmr6 expression is significantly decreased in bmr6 and bmr6 bmr12 compared to the wild-type and bmr12, 20fold and 15fold, respectively | Sorghum bicolor | - |
additional information | polymorphic restriction site is present in the near-isogenic lines Atlas bmr6, RTx430 bmr6, and Wheatland bmr6 and is absent from wild-type Atlas, RTx430, and Wheatland | Sorghum bicolor | - |

additional information | a C-to-T transition mutation is present in bmr6 but not in any wild-type sequence. This mutation changes amino acid 132 of the protein from Gln (CAG) to a stop codon (UAG). The bmr6 sequence encodes a predicted truncated protein that lacks the nucleotide binding (NADPH) and C-terminal catalytic domains, thus bmr6 is presumably a null allele. No activity with caffeoyl alcohol and benzoyl alcohol | Sorghum bicolor | ? | - |

additional information | CAD4 expression is significantly increased in bmr6 and bmr6 bmr12 plants relative to the wild-type and bmr12, 5- and 2.5fold, respectively, which may highlight a compensatory mechanism for loss of CAD activity in bmr6.
