2 results about "Panicum virgatum" patented technology

Panicum virgatum, commonly known as switchgrass, is a perennial warm season bunchgrass native to North America, where it occurs naturally from 55°N latitude in Canada southwards into the United States and Mexico. Switchgrass is one of the dominant species of the central North American tallgrass prairie and can be found in remnant prairies, in native grass pastures, and naturalized along roadsides. It is used primarily for soil conservation, forage production, game cover, as an ornamental grass, in phytoremediation projects, fiber, electricity, heat production, for biosequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and more recently as a biomass crop for ethanol and butanol.

Panicum virgatum seedling culture fungicide as well as preparation method and application thereof

The invention relates to a switchgrass seedling culture fungicide and a preparation method and application thereof.The switchgrass seedling culture fungicide comprises arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculant, a biochar carrier and an adhesive, the mass-volume ratio of the biochar carrier to the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculant is 15 g: 15 mL-20 g: 10 mL, the spore concentration of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculant is not lower than 30 / mL, and the spore concentration of the biochar carrier is not lower than 20 / mL. The mass of the adhesive is 5%-10% of the mass of the charcoal carrier. The preparation method comprises the following steps: S1, preparing a biochar carrier; s2, mixing the charcoal carrier with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus inoculum; s3, preparing the seedling culture fungicide. The application refers to the application of the switchgrass seedling culture fungicide in improving the colonization rate and the infection intensity of the switchgrass seedling root system arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi when switchgrass seedling culture is carried out by adopting saline-alkali soil or a salinization substrate. According to the method, the colonization rate and the infection intensity of the switchgrass root system arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can be remarkably improved under the condition of saline-alkali stress.

This invention discloses a gene, PvHsf16, encoding a plant heat shock transcription factor, and its applications. This gene originates from differentially expressed genes upregulated in members of the Hsf gene family of switchgrass under cadmium (Cd) stress. By constructing a yeast expression vector for PvHsf16, PvHsf16 cells exhibited significantly greater cadmium tolerance, indicating that this gene enhances yeast cadmium resistance. PvHsf16 is located in the cell nucleus. Overexpression of the PvHsf16 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana, compared to the wild type under CdCl2 treatment, showed enhanced cadmium tolerance in the PvHsf6 overexpressing lines, with significantly increased chlorophyll content, root length, and biomass. The PvHsf16 gene provides a genetic resource for cultivating switchgrass germplasm suitable for both energy grass and cadmium remediation, and can be applied to the remediation of cadmium-polluted areas, playing an important role in researching phytoremediation technologies and improving soil heavy metal pollution.
