Artificial packaging materials, such as plastic, can cause significant environmental problems.
Thus, the use of polysaccharide-based biodegradable polymers (cellulose, starch, and …

Drought stress is a major cause of yield losses in sugarcane production and the frequency of
its occurrence in several regions is expected to increase due to climate change. Despite the …

Sugarcane is a multifunctional crop mainly used for sugar and renewable bioenergy
production. Accurate and timely estimation of the sugarcane yield before harvest plays a …

Salt stress is a primary cause of crop losses worldwide, and it has been the subject of
intense investigation to unravel the complex mechanisms responsible for salinity tolerance …

Sugarcane plant is a glycophyte, hence its growth and sucrose contents are severely
affected by drought and salinity stresses. Bioengineering approaches offer a plausible and …

Key message An efficient, reproducible and genotype-independent in planta transformation
has been standardized for sugarcane using seed as explant. Abstract Transgenic sugarcane …

Sugarcane is an important crop in tropical regions of the world, often being exposed to
environments with high salinity, but little is known of genetic variation in salt tolerance. The …

Mutations are changes in the genetic material that may be transmitted to subsequent
generations. Mutations appear spontaneously in nature and are one of the underlying …

Background Calcineurin B-like protein (CBL)-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) are the
primary components of calcium sensors, and play crucial roles in plant developmental …

Sugarcane is the main source for sugar production and the most important crop for energy
production, as well as for byproducts like ethanol and fibers in the world. With a complex …
