Truncated Ubiquitin 5′ Regulatory Region from Erianthus arundinaceus Drives Enhanced Transgene Expression in Heterologous Systems

Molecular Biotechnology, 2015
Characterization of novel plant gene promoters underpins the development of transgenic crop plants. Here, we report a novel 5' regulatory sequence (Eriubi D7) of the ubiquitin gene from Erianthus arundinaceus, a wild relative of sugarcane resistant to many biotic and abiotic stresses.

Erianthus arundinaceus HSP70 (EaHSP70) overexpression increases drought and salinity tolerance in sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrid)

Plant Science, 2015
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have a major role in stress tolerance mechanisms in plants. Our studies have shown that the expression of HSP70 is enhanced under water stress in Erianthus arundinaceus. In this paper, we evaluate the effects of overexpression of EaHSP70 driven by Port Ubi 2.3 promoter in sugarcane. The transgenic events exhibit significantly

Characterisation of sugarcane X Erianthus arundinaceus hybrids using PCR and in situ hybridisation

2000
Erianthus arundinaceus is a species related to sugarcane with desirable attributes including excellent vigour and ratooning, adaptability to environmental stresses such as moisture deficits and excesses, and resistance to Pachymetra root rot. Numerous attempts have been made to cross E.

Production and shedding of Erianthus arundinaceus roots revealed by ingrowth core method

Grassland Science, 2015
AbstractErianthus arundinaceus is a potential feedstock for biofuel production. In material crops cultivation, roots are a major source of organic matter incorporated into the soil and greatly influence soil fertility. Here, we quantified root production and shedding of 3‐year‐old E. arundinaceus plants in Tokyo.

Verification of the introgression of Erianthus arundinaceus germplasm into sugarcane using molecular markers

Plant Breeding, 2005
Erianthus arundinaceus has a number of important agronomic traits including good ratooning ability, tolerance to both drought and water logging, disease resistance and vigour and is of interest as a potential source of parental germplasm to sugarcane breeders.

Drought tolerance evaluation of intergeneric hybrids of BC3F1 lines of Saccharum officinarum × Erianthus arundinaceus

Euphytica, 2019
Drought stress is a major determinant of sugarcane crop production in China. However, modern commercial sugarcane cultivars, due to their relatively narrow genetic base, are very susceptible to water deficit. Consequently, drought tolerance is an important breeding target for sugarcane improvement in China.

Analysis of Disequilibrium Hybridization in Hybrid and Backcross Progenies of Saccharum officinarum × Erianthus arundinaceus

Agricultural Sciences in China, 2010
Erianthus arundinaceus is an important, closely related genus of Saccharum officinarum L. It is therefore important to understand how the chromosomes are transmitted when it hybridizes with sugarcane. The hybrids and backcross progenies of S. officinarum and E.

Genome Characterization of In Vitro Induced Amphiploids of an Intergeneric Hybrid Erianthus arundinaceus × Saccharum spontaneum

Sugar Tech, 2016
Erianthus arundinaceus, a wild relative of sugarcane, has great potential as a germplasm source to contribute valuable traits to sugarcane including better ratoonability, vigour and adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses. Many unsuccessful attempts have been made to introduce the desirable characters from this wild species to modern sugarcane ...

Chemical Interaction Between the Sugarcane Stem Borer, Chilo sacchariphagus, and the Trap Crop Erianthus arundinaceus [PDF]

, 2018
Sugarcane yield losses due to the sugarcane stem borer, Chilo sacchariphagus, are reduced when plants of Erianthus arundinaceus, a close relative to sugarcane, are dispatched at the border of sugarcane fields. Previous studies showed that C. sacchariphagus females lay preferentially their eggs on E. arundinaceus and that newly emerged larvae are unable
