Genic microsatellite markers derived from EST sequences of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)
Switchgrass is a large, North American, perennial grass that is being evaluated as a potential energy crop. There is a need to assess genetic diversity in stored accessions and in remaining native stands to assist breeding and conservation efforts. Marker development will also be necessary for genetic linkage mapping. Toward this end, 32 switchgrass genic di-, triand tetranucleotide repeat micr...
متن کاملSNP Discovery with EST and NextGen Sequencing in Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)
Although yield trials for switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), a potentially high value biofuel feedstock crop, are currently underway throughout North America, the genetic tools for crop improvement in this species are still in the early stages of development. Identification of high-density molecular markers, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), that are amenable to high-throughput ge...
متن کاملPollen Viability and Longevity of Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)
Pollen is essential for seed production and serves as the primary means of gene flow in outcrossing species like switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.). There is a lack of information on basic pollen biology in switchgrass. This study investigated pollen viability, pollen longevity, and pollen size using different materials, including the tetraploid cultivar Alamo, the octoploid cultivar Cave-in-Roc...
متن کاملRust Diseases on Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum)
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) is a perennial C 4 grass native to the central prairies of North America. Recent development of switchgrass as a sustainable biofuel feedstock has raised interest in diseases that could impact switchgrass, especially when grown under monoculture conditions. Among the known diseases of switchgrass, rust diseases are the most widespread and could potentially impact ...
متن کاملPollen-mediated gene flow from transgenic to non-transgenic switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) in the field
BACKGROUND Switchgrass is C4 perennial grass species that is being developed as a cellulosic bioenergy feedstock. It is wind-pollinated and considered to be an obligate outcrosser. Genetic engineering has been used to alter cell walls for more facile bioprocessing and biofuel yield. Gene flow from transgenic cultivars would likely be of regulatory concern. In this study we investigated pollen-m...
