Genome-wide characterization of the biggest grass, bamboo, based on 10,608 putative full-length cDNA sequences [PDF]

, 2010
Background With the availability of rice and sorghum genome sequences and ongoing efforts to sequence genomes of other cereal and energy crops, the grass family (Poaceae) has become a model system for comparative genomics and for better understanding ...

Comparison of the structure and flexural properties of Moso, Guadua and Tre Gai bamboo [PDF]

, 2015
Bamboo is an underutilized resource widely available in countries with rapidly developing economies. Structural bamboo products, analogous to wood products, allow flexibility in the shape and dimensions of bamboo structural members.

Carbon stock of Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens) forests along a latitude gradient in the subtropical region of China.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Latitude is an important factor that influences the carbon stock of Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens) forests. Accurate estimation of the carbon stock of Moso bamboo forest can contribute to sufficient evaluation of forests in carbon sequestration ...

The next widespread bamboo flowering poses a massive risk to the giant panda [PDF]

, 2019
The IUCN Red List has downgraded several species from “endangered” to “vulnerable” that still have largely unknown extinction risks. We consider one of those downgraded species, the giant panda, a bamboo specialist.

The Influence of Different Management Modes on the Potential of Moso Bamboo Carbon Sink Based on Survey Data of Yuhang and Lin’an [PDF]

, 2021
Bamboo forest carbon sequestration has strong development potential in coping with global climate change. The management of Moso bamboo forest can exert its own strong carbon sequestration ability and promote farmers' income, which is the fundamental ...

Strip Clearcutting Drives Vegetation Diversity and Composition in the Moso Bamboo Forests

Forest Science, 2021
Abstract Strip clearcutting of Moso bamboo forests in southern China has seen increasing interest as a way of reducing harvesting costs. Previous research has shown that cutting influences the overstory structure and drives changes in the microclimate and soil properties.

The Influence of Repeated Thermal Shock on the Mechanical Properties of Mongolia Scotch Pine and Moso Bamboo

BioResources, 2014
The sharp temperature changes in nature (e.g., forest fires, ice, and snow) can cause mechanical damage to trees and bamboo. The mechanical properties of Mongolia Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L. var.

Porosity estimation of Phyllostachys edulis (Moso bamboo) by computed tomography and backscattered electron imaging [PDF]

, 2016
This study aims to investigate and quantify the porosity in the cross section of Phyllostachys edulis (Moso bamboo) culm wall. The porosity results are expected to be utilised in numerical study of heat and moisture transfer.
