Journal ArticleDOI
High throughput Agrobacterium-mediated switchgrass transformation
TL;DR: The new system substantially improved switchgrass transformation efficiency and will significantly contribute to the genetic improvement of this important biofuel feedstock via biotechnological approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sodium hydroxide pretreatment of genetically modified switchgrass for improved enzymatic release of sugars.
TL;DR: Results show that down-regulation of 4CL gene promoted enzymatic hydrolysis of plant cell walls following a mild alkali pretreatment, which boosted glucan and xylan conversion efficiency in the best transgenic plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tissue culture‐induced morphological somaclonal variation in St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze]
Ruyu Li,A. H. Bruneau,Rongda Qu +2 more
TL;DR: A large scale tissue culture experiment was conducted with St. Augustinegrass, an important turfgrass species for the southern USA, to induce somaclonal variation to enlarge the germplasm pool for breeding efforts and altered traits in the variant lines were stable during vegetative propagation and when grown in different environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment of transgenic switchgrass for sugar production.
TL;DR: Genetic engineering resulted in a substantial increase in the ratio of acid soluble lignin:acid insoluble lignIn, which led to considerably increased sugar productions in both pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved plant regeneration and in vitro somatic embryogenesis of St Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze]
Ruyu Li,A. H. Bruneau,Rongda Qu +2 more
TL;DR: Scanning electron microscopy revealed that plant regeneration of St Augustinegrass is via somatic embryogenesis, and the addition of benzyladenine in the callus induction/subculture medium enhances callus regeneration ability and does not harmCallus induction for immature embryos.
