Development of improved perennial non-food biomass and bioproduct crops for water stressed environments (WATBIO)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
"The goal of WATBIO is to use the power of next generation sequencing to develop an accelerated route for producing new germplasm with enhanced drought tolerance whilst maintaining biomass productivity and quality in water scarce, marginal environments unsuitable for food crops.This will be achieved for three non-food crops (Populus, Miscanthus and Arundo), suitable for growth on water scarce, mar ...

Optimizing Miscanthus Biomass Production - OPTIMISC (OPTIMISC)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,
Miscanthus is a C4 perennial rhizomatous grass that has become a leading candidate crop for production of lignocellulosic feedstocks due to its rapid biomass accumulation in temperate climates. There is currently a single commercial clone, M. x giganteus, which has a number of limitations. Research over the past 20 years has shown that a few key species and their interspecific hybrids have a high ...
