The genus Saccharum consists of two wild and four cultivated species. Novel interspersed sequences were isolated from cultivated sugar cane S. officinarum. These sequences were accumulated in all four cultivated species and their wild ancestral species S. robustum, but were not detected in the other wild species S. spontaneum and the relative Erianthus arundinaceus. The species-specific accumul...

La caña de azúcar del género Saccharum officinarum se destina principalmente a la producción azúcar, sin embargo, los residuos que genera en las diversas etapas es un problema escala mundial debido al impacto ambiental, puesto varias industrias desechos no son dispuestos adecuadamente, desaprovechando su potencial. Por tanto, el presente trabajo revisión enfoca buscar mediante bibliográfica ent...

Sampling efforts conducted in several provinces from Thailand disclosed three new species of tetranychid mites. Two of them belong to the genus Tetranychus, namely Tetranychus occultaspina sp. nov. and Tetranychus truncatissimus sp. nov. and the third species belongs to the genus Schizotetranychus, Schizotetranychus krungthepensis sp. nov. They were collected on Ipomoea aquatica, Bambusa multip...

Increasing sugar productivity is the main concern of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) breeding programs. The complexity and size of the sugarcane genome is a major limitation in genetic improvement. Characterization of sugarcane wild germplasm provides essential information on genetic diversity that breeders utilize for crop improvement. The objective of this study was to evaluate the utility ...

The production and characterization of bagasse biochar (Saccharum officinarum Linn) in this study was carried out through pyrolysis for 4 hours at a temperature 1100C. purpose research to determine the capacity as an ameliorant improving fertility marginal lands, especially West Kalimantan, namely peatlands. is known based on gravimetric analysis, which has moisture content 0.38%, ash 2.42%, vo...

The absorption of Cu(2+), Zn(2+), and Mn(2+) by leaf tissue of 4-month old sugarcane plants (Saccharum officinarum L., var. H53-263) has been investigated. After the "apparent free space" fraction was desorbed, the absorption of Cu(2+), Mn(2+), and Zn(2+) yielded a curve typical of many ion uptake processes when measured as a function of the external concentration. However, only 1 absorption me...

Commercial sugarcane hybrid cultivars currently in production are high-yielding, disease-resistant, millable canes and are the result of years of breeding work. In Hawaii, these commercial hybrids are quite distinct from many Saccharum officinarum canes still in existence that were brought to the islands and cultivated by the native Polynesians. The actual genetic relationships among the native...

cDNA fragments of lea3 genes with a high GC content (from 68 to 77%) were found in several Poaceae, including Sorghum vulgare, Saccharum officinarum, Oryza officinalis, Oryza meyeriana, Ampelocalamus calcareus, Cynodon dactylon, and Zizania latifoli. They were successfully isolated by means of optimal experimental parameters, which included dimethyl sulfoxide as additive and degenerate primers ...
