The operation of PEPCK increases light harvesting plasticity in C4 NAD–ME and NADP–ME photosynthetic subtypes: A theoretical study

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 6, Page 2288-2309, June 2024.
Abstract The repeated emergence of NADP–malic enzyme (ME), NAD–ME and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) subtypes of C4 photosynthesis are iconic examples of convergent evolution, which suggests that these biochemistries do not randomly assemble, but are instead specific adaptations resulting from unknown evolutionary drivers.

Flavonoids and phenolic acids from sugarcane: Distribution in the plant, changes during processing, and potential benefits to industry and health

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 2, March 2024.
Abstract Sugarcane (Saccharum sp.) plants are grown in warmer climates throughout the world and processed to produce sugar as well as other useful byproducts such as molasses and bagasse. Sugarcane is rich in (poly)phenols, but there has been no attempt to critically evaluate the published information based on the use of suitable methodologies.

Saccharum × Miscanthus intergeneric hybrids (miscanes) exhibit greater chilling tolerance of C4 photosynthesis and postchilling recovery than sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids)

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 11, Issue 11, Page 1318-1333, November 2019., 2019
Exploiting sugarcane as a high biomass energy producer is largely limited in tropics due to its acute susceptibility to chilling temperatures, which is common in higher latitudes. Hybrid breeding is one important aspect for improving chilling tolerance in sugarcane.

The Dynamics of Sugarcane and Sugar Yields in Florida: 1950–2018

Crop Science, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1880-1886, September-October 2019., 2019
Florida is the largest producer of sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) in the United States. Since 1911, the University of Florida continues to develop new sugarcane cultivars that are better adapted to the Florida environment. We use piecewise regression to determine the growth in both Florida sugarcane and sugar yields, and how new sugarcane cultivars have ...

A streak through history: Solving the riddle of chlorotic streak disease of sugarcane

Plant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 3-11, January 2024.
This review spans the 90 years that passed between the emergence of chlorotic streak disease of sugarcane and the discovery of its pathogen in 2018, and provides epidemiological information on the disease and its management. Abstract Until recently, the identity of the pathogen of chlorotic streak disease (CSD) was one of the most enduring mysteries of

Cell wall metabolism and hexose allocation contribute to biomass accumulation in high yielding extreme segregants of a Saccharum interspecific F2 population

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Sugarcane is an emerging dual-purpose biofuel crop for energy and sugar production, owing to its rapid growth rate, high sucrose storage in the stems, and high lignocellulosic yield.
