(2005, background): “Green-Casler et al., 2004), while the latter usually outperform house-grown seedlings were transplanted into prepared seed-the former in southern states such as Texas, Alabama, beds between 16 July and 7 Aug. 1997.”
• Nonnative Species and Bioenergy: Are We Cultivating the Next Invader? (2008, background): “This parallel assessment should be performed for all candidate genotypes and cultivars, as well as for transformed genotypes of native species, because ecological inter - actions can vary widely within a species (e.g., Casler et al. 2004).”
• Genetic Diversity, Plant Adaptation Regions, and Gene Pools for Switchgrass (2007, background): “…has acted on a large regional scale, diff erentiating populations for fl owering time, photoperiodism, cold tolerance, and heat tolerance, strongly on a latitudinal gradient and weakly on a longitudinal gradient (Casler, 2005; Casler et al., 2004; McMillian, 1959, 1965; McMillian and Weiler, 1959).”
• Heterosis in Switchgrass: Biomass Yield in Swards (2008, result): “These results are consistent with recently published adaptation information for switchgrass ( Casler et al., 2004, 2007 ) that demonstrates that survival of switchgrass cultivars may be a problem if they are moved more than a hardiness zone north of their origin hardiness zone.”
• Theoretical Expected Genetic Gains for Among‐and‐Within‐Family Selection Methods in Perennial Forage Crops (2008, background): “The genetic correlation between biomass yield and ground cover of switchgrass is also a relatively high and positive value, suggesting that survival may also be a component of biomass yield in a bunchgrass that relies on tillering to compensate for gaps between plants (Casler et al., 2004, 2007).”
