Evaluation of Switchgrass Genotypes for Cold-Tolerant Seed Germination from Native Populations in the Northeast USA

Evaluation of Switchgrass Genotypes for Cold-Tolerant Seed Germination from Native Populations in the Northeast USA

The focus of this research was to evaluate genotypes for cold-tolerant germination from wild switchgrass (<i>Panicum virgatum</i> L.) populations collected in the Northeast USA. Switchgrass nurseries were established in 2008 and 2009 with seed collected from native stands of switchgrass...
