Diseases of Tropical Perennial Crops: Challenging Problems in Diverse Environments
The world’s oldest ecosystems are found in the tropics. They are diverse, highly evolved, but barely understood. Diseases that impact crops in these regions can be significant contraints to production, especially when they occur in lowland environments with high rainfall and uniform, warm temperatures; respites from disease pressure there are often infrequent. Difficulties in managing diseases ...
متن کاملTropical Environments, Biodiversity, and the Origin of Crops
Plants play an important, but often insufficiently recognized. role in human societies, chiefly as providers of food, feed, and fiber, but for other uses as well such as drugs and building materials. In those cases where demand for a particular plant product exceed natural supply, humans initiated cultivation of those plants 10,000 years ago, resulting in the domestication of a limited number o...

متن کاملPerennial Forages as Second Generation Bioenergy Crops
The lignocellulose in forage crops represents a second generation of biomass feedstock for conversion into energy-related end products. Some of the most extensively studied species for cellulosic feedstock production include forages such as switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L.), and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). An advantage of using forages as bioenergy ...
