Calculated total fermentable sugar yield in S. bicolor mutants. Combined total sugar yield from saccharification of the cell wall fraction and soluble sugar fraction in S. bicolor bmr6 and bmr12 mutants harvested at 10 days post-anthesis as determined by wet chemistry of whole stalks (measured) and FTIR predictive models extrapolated from the fourth internode (predicted). Data are represented as means of six biological replicates ± SE. FTIR, Fourier transform infrared; SE, standard error.
