The world's population is expected to grow to almost 10 billion by 2050, placing
unprecedented demands on agriculture and natural resources. The risk in food security is …

Feeding a growing world population amidst climate change requires optimizing the
reliability, resource use, and environmental impacts of food production. One way to assist in …

Miscanthus floridulus is a plant with high biomass and heavy metal tolerance, which is a
good candidate for phytoremediation. It is essential to explore how to improve its …

High‐throughput sequencing technologies have revolutionized the study of plant‐
associated microbial populations, but they are relatively expensive. Molecular fingerprinting …

Cultivation of the bioenergy and bioproduct crop Miscanthus x giganteus (Miscanthus) on
marginal lands (including those that are anthropogenically damaged) is attractive due to the …

Miscanthus has good tolerance to heavy metals (HMs) and has received increasing
attention in studies of HM-contaminated soil remediation. In this study, four Miscanthus …

Soil microbes play important roles in plant growth and in the biogeochemical cycling of
earth's elements. However, the structure and functions of the microbial community …

Phytoremediation using Miscanthus is a valuable technique for the restoration of saline‐
alkaline soil, but the potential is not quantified. To assess this potential, a 5 years field …

The aims of this study were to isolate, identify and characterize culturable endophytic
bacteria from chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) roots grown in different soils. In addition, the …

Miscanthus x giganteus is a high biomass producing plant with tolerance to heavy metals.
This makes Miscanthus interesting to be used for phytoremediation of heavy metal …
