A regional assessment of the indigenous vascular plants of Niue is presented using the IUCN Red List criteria. The assessment was undertaken during a community workshop that drew on the indigenous local knowledge and scientific information. The assessment comprised 197 named taxa and 8 indeterminate entities, with 4 (2.0%) taxa assessed as Extinct and ...

Diallel analysis of elephantgrass clones for bioenergy production in a tropical environment
Abstract Climate change caused by fossil fuels has driven the search for bioenergy sources. Elephantgrass [Cenchrus purpureus (Schumach.) Morrone] biomass is a promising alternative for diversifying the energy matrix. One of the main steps of a genetic breeding program is the selection of parents who will form the crossing block, and the use of diallel

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Skim‐sequencing for genomic selection in wheat: a comparison of marker platforms
Abstract The promise of genomics‐assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open‐source software, we demonstrate how ultra‐low whole‐genome sequencing coverage (skim‐seq, 0.05–0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Cenchrus purpureus [PDF]
The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Cenchrus Purpureus, important silage in China, is presented in this article. The total genome size is 138,199 bp, containing a large single copy (LSC) region (81,161 bp) and a small single copy region (12,386 bp) which were separated by two inverted repeat (IRs) regions (22,326 bp). The overall GC contents of
