Pollen-mediated gene flow from transgenic to non-transgenic switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) in the field
Abstract Background Switchgrass is C4 perennial grass species that is being developed as a cellulosic bioenergy feedstock. It is wind-pollinated and considered to be an obligate outcrosser. Genetic engineering has been used to alter cell walls for more facile bioprocessing and biofuel yield. Gene fl...
