Forgetting cane grasses: Switching temporal focus to reveal mosaics of Saccharum diversity
Societal Impact Statement Sugarcane (Saccharum cvs.) is one of the most important cash crops globally. Related varieties and species of cane grasses of the genus Saccharum are also important subsistence crops in the Indo‐Pacific region.

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Summary Roots are responsible for soil water uptake, yet little is known about how variation in fine‐root traits relates to whole‐tree water movement, particularly during periods of drought. By combining a 3‐yr dataset monitoring sap flow rates with measures of fine‐root biomass, length, and morphology across 10 tree species, we addressed hypotheses ...

Somatic genome‐doubling is the most parsimonious route to allopolyploidy
Summary The origin of a polyploid can hinge on a single errant cell division, a mistake in the cell cycle that leads to genome‐doubling and re‐writes the rules of chromosome pairing and segregation. In plants, the evolutionary significance of these errors is magnified by lack of an early sequestered germline, meaning somatic mutations can be heritable.

Genetic maps of Saccharum officinarum L. and Saccharum robustum Brandes & Jew. ex grassl
Genetic analysis was performed in a population composed of 100 F1 individuals derived from a cross between a cultivated sugarcane (S. officinarum `LA Purple') and its proposed progenitor species (S. robustum `Mol 5829'). Various types (arbitrarily primed-PCR, RFLPs, and AFLPs) of single-dose DNA markers (SDMs) were used to construct genetic linkage ...

In our experiment a F1 hybrid (GU (04)-28-EO2) obtained from Erianthus procerus (IND 90-776) x Saccharum officinarum (PIO 96-435) was crossed with a commercial variety, Co 06027. Resulted BC1 hybrid (GU 12-25) was crossed with a commercial cane Co 12009.

The repeatome landscape in the “Saccharum complex”
IntroductionThe “Saccharum complex” comprises several closely related genera (Tripidium/Erianthus, Miscanthus and Narenga) which may hybridize with Saccharum, contributing to the origin of modern sugarcane.
