Four provinces (Fujian, Hunan, Zhejiang, Jiangxi) each have more than 70 million hectares, collectively accounting for 80 % of the total area of Moso bamboo in China. We named these four provinces as the core area for Moso bamboo and the remaining area in other provinces as non-core area. There has been limited research on how climate, topography, and soil factors collectively affect Moso bamboo biomass in both the core and non-core areas. To better understand the variations, data on DBH and individual biomass were gathered from 348 plots from 25 literature sources and a total of 18 plots from four field surveys conducted in 2019. We found evidence that the above-ground biomass of Moso bamboo forests is influenced by a combination of climate, soil nutrients and topography, with different factors playing a more significant role in the core and non-core areas. Moso bamboo had higher individual above-ground biomass in the core area compared to the non-core area. In the core area, above-ground biomass of Moso bamboo was more influenced by climate than by soil nutrients. In this area, annual minimum temperature had a negative effect on above-ground biomass, while precipitation had a positive effect. In contrast, soil total nitrogen had the largest positive effect on above-ground biomass in non-core area. These findings may contribute to the development of a future biomass model for Moso bamboo forests.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100040,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Bamboo Science","volume":"8 ","pages":"Article 100091"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2773139124000363/pdfft?md5=dffffcc45ceb8988f98d598bbd670b50&pid=1-s2.0-S2773139124000363-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141240101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The noodles fortified with the powder had a maximum content of amino acid (1.15 g/100 g), proteins (7.14 g/100 g), carbohydrates (40.4 g/100 g), starch (71.1 g/100 g). Vitamin C and E contents of the fortified noodles were enhanced compared to control noodles, with fortified noodles containing a maximum vitamin C content of 2.91 mg/100 g and a maximum vitamin E content of 0.79 mg/100 g. The content of fat in the fortified noodles was lower than the control noodles (2.71 g/100 g), which will be beneficial for health conscious consumers. The antioxidant activity was highest in the fortified noodles (1420.6 µg/ml, IC₅₀ of DPPH), and the minimum antioxidant activity was observed in control noodles (IC₅₀ value of 2431.17 μg/ml). The sensory score for fortified noodles was greater for texture (7.5), taste (7.7), and overall acceptability (7.2) compared to the control noodles (7.4, 7.6, and 7.0 respectively). Fortifying noodles with essential nutrients is a promising way to improve the nutritional value of this popular food item.

Due to its economic and environmental value, demand for this species has increased tremendously. Conventional propagation methods have limitations due to low seed viability and the lack of healthy clumps. Therefore, an in vitro mass propagation protocol was developed to provide healthy plants for large-scale plantations. Seeds were used as the explant and they were surface sterilized and cultured on MS medium free of growth regulators. Nodal segments taken from in vitro germinated seedlings were used for shoot initiation. The best medium for shoot induction (MS medium supplemented with 0.0–2.5 mg/L BAP), best medium for multiple shoot induction (MS medium supplemented with 0.0–5.0 mg/L BAP), effect of shoot cluster size (shoot clusters containing 1–4 shoots) and effect of physical state of the medium (semisolid and liquid media) on multiple shoot induction were determined using shoots per node, mean shoot length and mean number of leaves per shoot after 6 weeks of incubation. Elongated shoots were transferred into a rooting medium and the best medium for root induction (MS medium supplemented with 0.0–5.0 mg/L IBA and IAA) and effect of cluster size (shoot clusters containing 1–4 shoots) on rooting were determined using the number of roots and root length after 6 weeks of incubation. All the cultures were maintained under a 16-hour photoperiod. Well-developed plantlets were transferred to coir pellets and after four weeks transferred into different potting mixtures containing different combinations of sand, compost and coir dust. Unless otherwise mentioned there were at least twenty replicates in all treatments. The highest mean number of shoots per node (16.87±0.52), mean shoot length (4.12±0.27 cm) and mean number of leaves per shoot (4.80±0.33) were observed in the MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L BAP. The MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L BAP was the best for multiple shoot induction, shoot cluster with 3 shoots was the best cluster size and the liquid medium had a better effect on shoot multiplication. The half-strength MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L IBA was the best for in vitro root induction with the highest mean number of roots (7.15±0.77) and a mean root length of 10.79±1.11 cm. Shoot clusters with 3 shoots was the best cluster size for root induction. A sand: compost: coir dust (1:1:1) mixture was the best potting mixture giving 100% survival.

This paper presents a holistic investigation into the uniaxial compressive capacity of short bamboo scrimber columns in terms of failure mode, size effect, aspect ratio and failure strain. The studies in focus have been collated from published articles in literature. Furthermore, intermediately slender to long columns have been investigated with respect to the most common international timber standards and, elastic and inelastic theories. It is shown that the dominant failure mode affects the ultimate strength, especially a failure mode called kinking/local buckling. A size effect was observed and discussed with respect to the failure modes. In addition, a tangent modulus theory was proposed from a constitutive model called the Full-range Ramberg Osgood model that could better predict the critical buckling stress of intermediate-long columns over the conventional theory. Moreover, a modified AS1720 design approach was proposed to accommodate the inherent column behaviour of bamboo scrimber. Finally, a modified Newlin-Gahagan approach was proposed which produced consistent predictions for the experimental buckling stress for columns with varying slenderness across four different studies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100040,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Bamboo Science","volume":"7 ","pages":"Article 100082"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2773139124000272/pdfft?md5=420a2a072a935b2d904fa5f219950851&pid=1-s2.0-S2773139124000272-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140824660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
