Since the Arabidopsis genome was completed, draft sequences or pseudomolecules have
been published for more than 100 plant genomes including green algae, in large part due to …

With the advent of biorefinery technologies enabling plant biomass to be processed into
biofuel, many researchers set out to study and improve candidate biomass crops. Many of …

Genome duplication (GD) has permanently shaped the architecture and function of many
higher eukaryotic genomes. The angiosperms (flowering plants) are outstanding models in …

Miscanthus is a perennial wild grass that is of global importance for paper production,
roofing, horticultural plantings, and an emerging highly productive temperate biomass crop …

The role of polyploidy, particularly allopolyploidy, in plant diversification is a subject of
debate. Whole-genome duplications precede the origins of many major clades (eg …

The biomass demand to fuel a growing global bio-based economy is expected to
tremendously increase over the next decades, and projections indicate that dedicated …

Several species of the genus Miscanthus are characterized by high biomass yields and low
input requirements, and there is increasing interest in their commercial use for bioenergy …

For more than a thousand years, people have used Miscanthus from wild stands or
managed landscapes, to feed their livestock, roof their homes, make paper, dye …

Miscanthus, a C4 perennial grass native to Eastern Asia, is being bred to provide biomass
for bioenergy and biorenewable products. Commercial expansion with the clonal hybrid M.× …

Multiple polyploidizations with divergent consequences in the grass subtribe Saccharinae
provide a singular opportunity to study in situ adaptation of a genome to the duplicated state …
