Physiological changes and transcriptome profiling in Saccharum spontaneum L. leaf under water stress and re-watering conditions [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 As the polyploidy progenitor of modern sugarcane, Saccharum spontaneum is considered to be a valuable resistance source to various biotic and abiotic stresses. However, little has been reported on the mechanism of drought tolerance in S.

Balancing gain and diversity: Optimal contribution selection for sustainable genetic improvement in sugarcane. [PDF]
Plant GenomeAbstract Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids), the source of ∼80% of the worlds sugar, has experienced a plateau in genetic improvement over recent decades. This stagnation is largely due to the crop's complex polyploid genome and long breeding cycles, which limit the efficiency of traditional selection methods.

Unraveling the complex genome of Saccharum spontaneum using Polyploid Gene Assembler. [PDF]
DNA Res, 2019 The Polyploid Gene Assembler (PGA), developed and tested in this study, represents a new strategy to perform gene-space assembly from complex genomes using low coverage DNA sequencing. The pipeline integrates reference-assisted loci and de novo assembly strategies to construct high-quality sequences focused on gene content.
