Provided herein are plants having altered expression of a coding region encoding a hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein. In some embodiments the expression is decreased, and the resulting plant has decreased recalcitrance, increased growth, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments the expression is increased, and the resulting plant has decreased growth, biomass that is more cross-linked, biomass that is more dense, or a combination thereof. Also provided are methods for making and using such plants. |
