Complementary Transcriptome and Proteome Analyses Provide Insight into the Floral Transition in Bamboo (Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro). [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2020
Most woody bamboos bloom only once after long vegetative growth phases and die immediately afterwards. It is difficult, however, to determine the timing of the floral transition, as little information is available on the molecular mechanism of plant maturity in bamboos.

Genome-Wide Identification and Role of the bHLH Gene Family in Dendrocalamus latiflorus Flowering Regulation. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
The basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) gene family is a crucial regulator in plants, orchestrating various developmental processes, particularly flower formation, and mediating responses to hormonal signals. The molecular mechanism of bamboo flowering regulation remains unresolved, limiting bamboo breeding efforts.

Complete nucleotide sequence of Dendrocalamus latiflorus and Bambusa oldhamii chloroplast genomes. [PDF]

Tree Physiol, 2009
Although bamboo is one of the most important woody crops in Asia, information on its genome is still very limited. To investigate the relationship among Poaceae members and to understand the mechanism of albino mutant generation in vitro, the complete chloroplast genome of two economically important bamboo species, Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro and ...

Potential use of bamboo resources in energy value‐added conversion technology and energy systems

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 15, Issue 8, Page 936-953, August 2023., 2023
Bamboo offers a potential solution to the energy crisis and climate change. It can be converted into bioenergy through processes like pyrolysis, hydrothermal liquefaction, fermentation, and anaerobic digestion. However, challenges exist, and an evaluation system for energy bamboo species is proposed to optimize its utilization for maximum benefits ...

The economics and policy of genome editing in crop improvement

The Plant Genome, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2023., 2023
Abstract In this review article we analyze the economics of genome editing and its potential long‐term effect on crop improvement and agriculture. We describe the emergence of genome editing as a novel platform for crop improvement, distinct from the existing platforms of plant breeding and genetic engineering.

Targeted mutagenesis with sequence‐specific nucleases for accelerated improvement of polyploid crops: Progress, challenges, and prospects

The Plant Genome, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Many of the world's most important crops are polyploid. The presence of more than two sets of chromosomes within their nuclei and frequently aberrant reproductive biology in polyploids present obstacles to conventional breeding. The presence of a larger number of homoeologous copies of each gene makes random mutation breeding a daunting task ...

Expression of Iron Metabolism Genes Is Potentially Regulated by DOF Transcription Factors in Dendrocalamus latiflorus Leaves. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Transcription factors (TFs) are crucial pre-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms that can modulate the expression of downstream genes by binding to their promoter regions. DOF (DNA binding with One Finger) proteins are a unique class of TFs with extensive roles in plant growth and development.

Proximate Chemical Analysis and Effect of Age and Height of Oxytenanthera abyssinica on Fiber Morphology and Chemical Compositions for Pulp and Paper Production Potential

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
This study examined the chemical composition, fiber morphology, and physical properties of Oxytenanthera abyssinica culm to assess its pulping potential. Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry (TAPPI) and Franklin’s methods have been used for experiments. The statistical analysis showed that the chemical composition of O.

Profiling of aroma compounds released from cooking Dendrocalamus latiflorus shoots [PDF]

BioResources, 2020
Volatile aroma compounds in Dendrocalamus latiflorus shoots were extracted using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and then heated at various temperatures and for various durations. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyses showed that frozen D. latiflorus shoots at ambient temperature contain 18 volatile aroma compounds, with limonene and

De novo phasing resolves haplotype sequences in complex plant genomes

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1031-1041, June 2022., 2022
Summary Genome phasing is a recently developed assembly method that separates heterozygous eukaryotic genomic regions and builds haplotype‐resolved assemblies. Because differences between haplotypes are ignored in most published de novo genomes, assemblies are available as consensus genomes consisting of haplotype mixtures, thus increasing the need for
