Short communication Estimating Arundo donax shoot biomass
We developed an equation for estimating Arundo donax shoot dry weight from shoot length. The equation, shoot dry weight (g) = 14.254 (standard error = 0.275) shoot height (m), was as effective at explaining a high proportion of total variation in shoot dry weight (R = 0.90) as more complicated equations containing additional morphometric parameters. Tested against two independent datasets, the ...
متن کاملCan the riparian invader, Arundo donax, benefit from clonal integration?
Resource sharing through rhizomes of clonal plants supplements locally available nutrients to enhance recruitment and growth in resource-limited environments. We investigated whether Arundo donax, an invasive clonal plant, can benefit from clonal integration. Sharing resources between ramets can facilitate resprouting from mowing, fire and herbicide treatments, but it is unknown whether clonal ...
متن کاملand transformation of high-biomass yielding perennial grass Arundo donax
In recent years there has been significant interest in harvesting renewable fuels and value-added chemicals from plant feedstocks, especially from perennial grasses such as Arundo donax L. [1, 2, 3]. Some reasons why perennial grasses are desirable as next-generation bioenergy feedstock are: (i) their low soil management requirements and growth on marginal land; (ii) their ability to prevent so...
متن کاملStructural and mechanical design of tissue interfaces in the giant reed Arundo donax.
The culms of the giant reed Arundo donax represent slender tube-like structures. Several nodes along the culm, a ring of sclerenchymatous fibres in the periphery of the culm wall and numerous isolated vascular bundles enclosed by fibre rings in the culm wall function as stiffening elements. The bundles are embedded in lignified parenchyma. Micromechanical analysis indicated differences in stiff...
متن کاملDevelopment of Fibre Polymer Sensor Reeds for Saxophone and Clarinet
Electronic pickup systems for acoustic instruments are often used in popular and contemporary music performances because they allow amplification and modification of a clean and direct signal. Strain gauge sensors on saxophone and clarinet reeds have been shown to be a useful tool to gain insight into tongue articulation during performance but also capture the reed vibrations. In our previous d...
