Remember García : an analysis of the life, legacy, and leadership of Dr. Héctor P. García.
… García. I begin by examining the history of the Alamo from an unpopular perspective, the Mexican side. By explaining the lesser-known history of the Alamo, I analyze García's similar situation. I, therefore, follow my introduction with a brief overview of the socio-historical climate of the …

A Comprehensive Analysis of Rust Disease Resistance in the Bioenergy Plant Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)
… resistance in commercial switchgrass cultivars. 'Alamo', a lowland cultivar, is generally resistant to switchgrass rust whereas 'Dacotah', an upland cultivar, is highly susceptible. I hypothesized that major R genes and/or QTLs were contributing to the differences in disease phenotypes of these …

Switchgrass tolerance to cadmium: uptake and translocation
… of switchgrass. In the first experiment, 'Alamo', 'Blackweir, 'Cave-in-Rock', and 'Trailblazer' switchgrass were grown in sand culture and were watered twice weekly with nutrient solution containing 0, 1,2, 4, 8, or 16 mg Cd L^-1. Cultivars differed (P<0.05) by less than 15% for biomass …

Cool Temperature Effects on Productivity and Photosynthesis of Two Biomass Fuel Species: Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and Miscanthus (Miscanthus x giganteus)
… in the US: switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) cv. Alamo and miscanthus (Miscanthus × giganteus). At 14/12"C and a 14/10 hour light/dark photoperiod, switchgrass showed lower productivity and light saturated photosynthetic rates (Amax=10.3 "mol m-2s-1) compared with 28/25"C and the same photoperiod …

Dry matter loss and compositional analysis of large switchgrass round bales during ambient storage in Virginia
Two varieties of switchgrass, Cave-N-Rock and Alamo, were baled into 1.8-m diameter by 1.2-m wide round bales and stored outside for 12 months. String-wrapped bales were stored on sad and net-wrapped bales on rock. Six bales (three-string-wrapped, three netwrapped) were destructively sampled at …

The potential implications of bioenergy crop production for water and energy balance and carbon and nitrogen dynamics in the United States
… bioenergy grasses (Miscanthus, Cave-in-Rock and Alamo switchgrasses). The dynamic crop growth model in ISAM accounts for crop-specific phenology development, carbon and nitrogen allocation between leaf, stem, and roots/rhizome, vegetation structure development (leaf area, canopy height and root …

Switchgrass as an Energy Crop: Fertilization, Cultivar, and Cutting Management
… taking two harvests of the lowland cultivars ("Alamo" and "Kanlow"). If harvested twice, the upland cultivars ("Cave-in-Rock" and "Shelter") provided yields equivalent to the lowland ecotypes. A closer look at Alamo revealed much higher N removal in the midsummer harvests, late-season N …

Utilizing Beneficial Bacterial Endophytes to Promote Switchgrass Growth in Low- input Agricultural Production Systems
… upon bacterization, between the responsive cv. Alamo, and a non-responsive cv. Cave-in-Rock. Using EST microarrays and quantitative PCR up- and down-regulated genes were identified in both cultivars. One of the key genes identified was a member of the tau class, glutathione S-transferase (GST). …
