Characterization and gas exchange in accessions of Saccharum complex under salinity in the Sub-middle São Francisco, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2021
Salinity is one of the factors that most limit agricultural yield in the Brazilian semi-arid region. In this context, the present study aimed to evaluate the leaf gas exchange and biometric characteristics of accessions of the Saccharum complex subjected

Viability of sugarcane and Erianthus arundinaceus pollen under marcotting treatment

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2022
Abstract Most of the sugarcane cultivated today is the hybrid between Saccharum offinarum and its relative, S. spontaneum. The breeding relies mainly on the crossing of male and female parents, which needs the excellent viability of the pollen from the male parent.

Isolation, characterization and expression analysis of novel water deficit stress-responsive DEEPER ROOTING 1 (DRO1) gene from drought-tolerant Erianthus arundinaceus

open access: yesJournal of Sugarcane Research, 2020
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is an important food, fodder and energy crop in India. Its production and productivity are mainly constrained due to water deficit stress during different growth stages.

Biomass yields, cytogenetics, fertility, and compositional analyses of novel bioenergy grass hybrids (Tripidium spp.)

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 12, Issue 5, Page 361-373, May 2020., 2020
Enhancing crop diversity and yields are central to the development of sustainable bioenergy supply chains. This 3‐year project evaluated key traits for newly developed bioenergy grass hybrids from the relatively obscure genus Tripidium. Findings demonstrated that high dry biomass yields (23.7–60.6 Mg/ha), high potential ethanol yields (10,181–27,546 L ...

Isolation and characterization of drought responsive Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) gene from drought tolerant wild relative of sugarcane, Erianthus arundinaceus

open access: yesJournal of Sugarcane Research, 2023
Aldehyde dehydrogenases are oxidising enzymes that play essential role in response to drought stress. Sugarcane, an important high biomass producing commercial crop and its productivity is influenced by drought stress.

Chromosome transmission in BC4 progenies of intergeneric hybrids between Saccharum spp. and Erianthus arundinaceus (Retz.) Jeswiet. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2019
AbstractIntergeneric hybrids between Saccharum spp. and Erianthus arundinaceus and clones derived from these hybrids and backcrosses to Saccharum spp. were used to study the transmission of E. arundinaceus chromosomes by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). True hybrid progenies were precisely identified using PCR with a primer pair, AGRP52/53.

Sugarcane Production in China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sugarcane production in China has a prolonged history since fourth century BC. At present, China is the world’s third largest sugar producing country after Brazil and India. During the past decade, more than 90% of the sugar production was contributed by

Potential for genetic improvement of sugarcane as a source of biomass for biofuels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids) has great potential as a major feedstock for biofuel production worldwide. It is considered among the best options for producing biofuels today due to an exceptional biomass production capacity, high carbohydrate (sugar
