Managing flowering time in Miscanthus and sugarcane to facilitate intra- and intergeneric crosses.

Miscanthus is a close relative of Saccharum and a potentially valuable genetic resource for improving sugarcane. Differences in flowering time within and between Miscanthus and Saccharum hinders intra- and interspecific hybridizations. A series of greenhouse experiments were conducted over three yea...
