Comparative analysis of stem carbon partitioning and development in Andropogoneae bioenergy grasses
… that overexpress Glossy15, which exhibit delayed shoot maturation and accumulate greater stem biomass and sugars compared to near-isogenic grain hybrids. The second system is a Saccharum pedigree where progeny vary for their relative production of stem sugar, fiber, and biomass. In both systems, …

The contribution of repeat associated small RNAs to genetic variation, hybrid vigor and inbreeding depression in maize
… (B73 x Mo17). We sampled sRNAs from the seedling shoot apex and the developing ear, two rapidly growing tissues that program the greater growth of maize hybrids. </p> <p> In plants, sRNAs can be grouped into three functionally distinct classes based on their lengths of 21, 22, or 24 nucleotides …

Genetic network regulating variation in vegetative phase change in maize
Vegetative phase change in maize is characterized by the transition from waxy juvenile leaves to pubescent, glossy adult leaves. In maize, mutants that alter the timing of vegetative phase change are valuable resources to identify the responsible factors. Also, continuous variation of leaf identity …
