Switchgrass Biomass and Chemical Composition for Biofuel in Eastern Canada
Agronomy Journal, Volume 91, Issue 4, Page 696-701, July 1999., 1999 Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is one of several warm‐season grasses that have been identified as potential biomass crops in North America. A two‐year field study was conducted, on a free‐draining sandy clay loam (St. Bernard, Typic Hapludalf), to characterize the growth and evaluate changes in biomass accumulation and composition of switchgrass at ...

Seed Production on Detached Culms of Pearl Millet × Elephantgrass Hexaploid Hybrids [PDF]
HortScience, 1996 Five nutrient solutions were evaluated in the greenhouse to determine which solutions would allow detached culms of Pennisetum to produce seed. The genotypes tested originated from the hybridization of Pennisetum glaucum L. (Pearl millet) ×

Allohexaploid pearl millet x elephantgrass population potential for a recurrent selection program [PDF]
Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2008 The objective of this work was to evaluate the potential of allohexaploid pearl millet x elephantgrass (HGL) population for a recurrent selection program through open-pollinated progenies. Seventy-eight progenies, one representative sample of the population, and two commercial cultivars, Pioneiro and Paraíso, were evaluated in a 9x9 triple lattice ...
