Influence of switchgrass management on soil microbial biomass and fatty acid methyl ester content in soil
(2020-07)
Switchgrass is a fairly new source of commercial biofuel feedstock. Its production can potentially preserve soil health and microbial functions in ecosystems. There is an increasing demand for large scale biomass production, ...
Net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide and water vapor fluxes in switchgrass and high biomass sorghum
(2013-12)
Understanding carbon and water dynamics of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) and high biomass sorghum ((Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) ecosystems is crucial as the acreage of these feedstocks is expanding for cellulosic biofuels. ...
Screening switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) for water stress tolerance
(2012-05)
Scope and Method of Study: Switchgrass can benefit from enhanced water stress tolerance as it will be grown in marginal areas. Whole plant and in vitro culture techniques can help to improve switchgrass biomass production ...
