Evaluating Kernza (Thinopyrum intermedium) as a Co‐Fermentation Feedstock for Bioethanol Production

Cereal Chemistry, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 346-353, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Kernza (Thinopyrum intermedium), a perennial grain developed by the Land Institute, presents a promising alternative to conventional ethanol feedstocks due to its deep‐root systems, low fertilizer requirements, and carbon sequestration potential.

Deep roots through time and crops: insight from five seasons at DeepRootLab

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2670-2688, May 2026.
Summary Deep‐rooted crops accessing water and nutrients from deep soil layers enhance the resource base for crop production. However, studying these roots in field conditions is labour‐intensive, limiting research scope. We established a field root research facility with 48 plots for replicated experiments.

A chromosome‐scale genome assembly of Hordeum erectifolium: genomic, transcriptomic and anatomical adaptations to drought in a wild barley relative

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2652-2669, May 2026.
Summary Wild crop relatives are valuable genetic resources for improving stress adaptation in cultivated species, but their effective use depends on high‐quality reference genomes integrated with phenotypic and molecular datasets. Hordeum erectifolium, a wild relative of barley (H.

New Roots for Restoration: Building a foundation for interdisciplinary work in plant organismal biology and ecology to advance restoration in natural and agricultural ecosystems

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 580-591, March 2026.
Soils are globally degraded due in part to conventional agriculture and wildland conversion. To address the global challenge of soil degradation, we formed an interdisciplinary, cross‐institutional collaborative research team, New Roots for Restoration, to understand how perennial plant root and shoot traits relate to one another, and how they ...

Temporal variability of soil health indicators under annual and perennial continuous living cover: Effects of annual weather and management

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Soil health indicators (SHIs) are used to detect changes in soil conditions in response to management. However, management effects must be disentangled from other factors influencing SHI variability. Specifically, how annual weather affects SHI remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we analyzed soil annually for 5 years at 64 sampling

Skim‐sequencing for genomic selection in wheat: a comparison of marker platforms

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract The promise of genomics‐assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open‐source software, we demonstrate how ultra‐low whole‐genome sequencing coverage (skim‐seq, 0.05–0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation

Thinopyrum intermedium showed a slower establishment phase compared to winter wheat in a controlled environment

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Thinopyrum intermedium is currently proposed as a perennial grain crop benefiting from raising interest through its environmental performances. As a new crop, little attention was paid to the understanding of the eco‐physiological regulations of its ...

The Construction of a Standard Karyotype of Intermediate Wheatgrass and Its Potential Progenitor Species

Plants
The genome composition of intermediate wheatgrass (IWG; Thinopyrum intermedium (Host) Barkworth and D.R. Dewey; 2n = 6x = 42) is complex and remains to be a subject of ongoing investigation.

Composition Analysis of Canola and Intermediate Wheatgrass Biomass and the Effects of Extraction

BioResources, 2023
Knowing the composition of biomass is critical for determining accurate yields of renewable chemicals and fuels; however, nonstructural components can affect the results of standard composition procedures, leading to inaccurate reactant amounts.
