Genetic characterization of an Italian Giant Reed (Arundo donax L.) clones collection: exploiting clonal selection

2014-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Arundo donax is a perennial rhizomatous plant growing spontaneously all over the world as an invasive plant reaching more than 8 m in height. It is a sterile plant which reproduces itself only agamically, through rhizomes and cane fragments which are transported by water or through human action. Although A. donax is an invasive plant it is considered one of the most promising energy crops, as it is characterized b...
