Growth and fecundity of fertile Miscanthus × giganteus (“PowerCane”) compared to feral and ornamental Miscanthus sinensis in a common garden experiment: Implications for invasion
Perennial grasses are promising candidates for bioenergy crops, but species that can escape cultivation and establish self-sustaining naturalized populations (feral) may have the potential to become invasive. Fertile Miscanthus × giganteus, known as "PowerCane," is a new potential biofuel crop. Its parent species are ornamental, non-native Miscanthus species that establish feral populations and...
متن کاملClassification of Ornamental Accessions of Miscanthus with Molecular Techniques by Adebosola Olamide Oladeinde Dissertation
Miscanthus is a genus of perennial C4 grasses that are native to East Asia and Southeast Africa. Miscanthus accessions have been widely distributed across the United States for horticultural use as ornamental plants. More recently, M. sinensis, M. sacchariflorus and their inter-specific hybrid, M. x giganteus have attracted interest as sustainable bioenergy feedstocks. While some lines have pro...
متن کاملEstablishment, Growth, and Yield Potential of the Perennial Grass Miscanthus × Giganteus on Degraded Coal Mine Soils
Miscanthus × giganteus is a giant C4 grass native to Asia. Unlike most C4 species, it is relatively cold tolerant due to adaptations across a wide range of altitudes. These grasses are characterized by high productivity and low input requirements, making them excellent candidates for bioenergy feedstock production. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential for growing Miscanthus on...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of microsatellite loci for a bioenergy grass, Miscanthus sacchariflorus (Poaceae)1
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite loci were developed for the biomass C4 grass, Miscanthus sacchariflorus, and proved to be suitable markers for population genetic studies and germplasm management of this species. • METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-three polymorphic microsatellite loci were identified from an enriched genomic library of M. sacchariflorus. The polymorphism was assess...
متن کاملAzospirillum doebereinerae sp. nov., a nitrogen-fixing bacterium associated with the C4-grass Miscanthus.
A new group of nitrogen-fixing Azospirillum sp. bacteria was isolated from the roots of the C4-gramineous plant Miscanthus. Polyphasic taxonomy was performed, including auxanography using API galleries, physiological tests and 16S rRNA sequence comparison. The ability of the isolates to fix dinitrogen was evaluated by amplification of the nifD gene, immunodetection of the dinitrogenase reductas...
