Abstract
Energy cane has been identified as an ideal crop for the sustainable production of biofuels due to its large amounts of lignocellulosic biomass. However, biochemical and molecular characteristics of energy cane have not yet been reported. The current study investigates polymorphism of simple sequence repeats in expressed sequence tags (Est-SSR loci) of energy cane clones PRBIO 172 and PRBIO 130 and of sugarcane varieties CTC 9001, CTC 9003, and RB935744, which permits a direct association between genes for specific proteins and enzymes and traits of agronomic interest. Genetic identity was observed in SSRs associated with loci EstA-68 and EstB-130 of the three sugarcane varieties and two energy cane clones. The basic contribution of our study was the identification of the polymorphic Est-SRR loci as targets to assess molecular and biochemical divergences of enzymes between sugarcane and energy cane, as well as between the two energy cane clones.

期刊介绍:
Plant Gene publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function and evolution of genes in plants, algae and other photosynthesizing organisms (e.g., cyanobacteria), and plant-associated microorganisms. Plant Gene strives to be a diverse plant journal and topics in multiple fields will be considered for publication. Although not limited to the following, some general topics include: Gene discovery and characterization, Gene regulation in response to environmental stress (e.g., salinity, drought, etc.), Genetic effects of transposable elements, Genetic control of secondary metabolic pathways and metabolic enzymes. Herbal Medicine - regulation and medicinal properties of plant products, Plant hormonal signaling, Plant evolutionary genetics, molecular evolution, population genetics, and phylogenetics, Profiling of plant gene expression and genetic variation, Plant-microbe interactions (e.g., influence of endophytes on gene expression; horizontal gene transfer studies; etc.), Agricultural genetics - biotechnology and crop improvement.
