Transcriptome profiling using pyrosequencing shows genes associated with bast fiber development in ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.) [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2014 Ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.), popularly known as "China grass", is one of the oldest crops in China and the second most important fiber crop in terms of area sown. Ramie fiber, extracted from the plant bast, is important in the textile industry. However, the molecular mechanism of ramie fiber development remains unknown.A whole sequencing run was ...

Pectinolytic Enzymes from Actinomycetes for the Degumming of Ramie Bast Fibers [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1994 Actinomycetes isolated from 10 different soil and compost samples were screened for production of pectinolytic enzyme activities when grown on pectin-containing solid and liquid media. Pectinolytic enzymes, detected by using plate diffusion tests with a medium containing ramie ( Boehmeria nivea ) plant material as ...

An Integrated Study of Ramie (<i>Boehmeria nivea</i>), and Its Wild, Cultivated, and Feral Forms. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study employed an integrative taxonomy approach to investigate the infraspecific classification of Boehmeria nivea (Ramie), a key fiber crop, analyzing 78 wild and feral individuals from 12 Chinese provinces and 11 cultivated ones. Morphological, phylogenomic, and ecological analyses revealed three varieties: var. nivea, var.
