Forgetting cane grasses: Switching temporal focus to reveal mosaics of Saccharum diversity
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 590-602, May 2025.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. Despite the significance of these crops globally and recent advances in genetic characterisation, the histories and geographies of ...
