Historique de l'amélioration de la canne à sucre et état de l'art des recherches en génétique d'association pour le rendement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
La sélection de la canne à sucre est récente, elle commence lors de la création des premiers hybrides obtenus à Java au début du siècle dernier. La nobilisation, une méthode de croisements interspécifiques, permit l'obtention de variétés nettement plus ...

Potential for genetic improvement of sugarcane as a source of biomass for biofuels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids) has great potential as a major feedstock for biofuel production worldwide. It is considered among the best options for producing biofuels today due to an exceptional biomass production capacity, high carbohydrate (sugar

Physical and chemical characterization of Saccharum spontaneum flower fibre: potential applications in thermal insulation and microbial fuel cells [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Saccharum spontaneum is a grass-type plant abundantly found in the Indian subcontinent, known for its beautiful, lustrous white flowers. Fibres were extracted from the flower and analyzed for their physical, mechanical, and chemical properties. The chemical composition of the fibre is 90.9% holocellulose, with a moisture content of 10.97%, and an ...

Surface Plasmon Polaritons Excited By Electromagnetic Waves Under General Boundary Conditions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
We investigate single interface surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) excited by electromagnetic waves under general electromagnetic boundary conditions that allow for non-zero surface charge and surface current densities. Incorporating these, we derive general conditions for single interface SPPs and solve both the surface source distributions and the ...

Protocol for selecting orange rust resistant sugarcane cultivars by artificial inoculation in greenhouse

open access: yesBiotecnología Vegetal, 2017
Orange rust [Puccinia kuehnii (W. Kruger) E. J. Butler] from sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is a disease of potential importance for Cuban sugarcane farming. However, under natural conditions, the presence of symptoms has not maintained stability in the foci

Nitrogen Fixation and Translocation in Sugarcane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
World sugarcane production is increasing rapidly as a biofuel. In some areas in Brazil, sugarcane has been grown continually over very long periods without N fertiliser inputs. Therefore, the occurrence of N fixation has been suspected.

Leakage radiation microscopy of surface plasmon polaritons [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
We review the principle and methodology of leakage radiation microscopy (LRM) applied to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). Therefore we first analyse in detail the electromagnetic theory of leaky SPP waves. We show that LRM is a versatile optical far-field method allowing direct quantitative imaging and analysis of SPP propagation on thin metal films.
