Optimizing Miscanthus Biomass Production - OPTIMISC (OPTIMISC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

Miscanthus is a C4 perennial rhizomatous grass that has become a leading candidate crop for production of lignocellulosic feedstocks due to its rapid biomass accumulation in temperate climates. There is currently a single commercial clone, M. x giganteus, which has a number of limitations. Research over the past 20 years has shown that a few key species and their interspecific hybrids have a high ...
