Article Abstract

A revision of the genus (Poaceae) in Thailand is reported. Seven species, i.e. , , , , , and are described in this taxonomic treatment. This genus is an exotic species and distributed throughout the floristic regions. All the species have become naturalised to Thailand as a weed and found growing in wastelands, open areas by the roadside, disturbed sites, the edge of rice fields and the edge of deciduous and evergreen forests at elevations between 0 and 2,650 m alt. , a synonym of is lectotypified. Detailed morphological descriptions, illustrations and a key to the species are presented, along with information on distributions, habitats, ecology, phenology, vernacular names and specimens examined.

Background: Tiller number is a critical component of rice yield, as it directly influences overall productivity. While upland rice varieties are well adapted to lowland environments and prove resilient to fluctuating water availability, their typically low tillering capacity limits their performance in lowland ecosystems where conditions are more conducive to achieving higher yields.

Results: To facilitate the marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding of upland rice cultivars suitable for lowland conditions, we performed QTL-seq analysis using populations derived from a cross between a high-tillering lowland indica parent (PTT1) and a low-tillering upland tropical japonica line (NDCMP49).

The objective of this study was to determine the kinetics of growth and citrinin production by Penicillium citrinum RC582 in purple glutinous rice grains ('Leum Pua' glutinous rice). A full factorial design was applied, examining four water activity (aw) levels (0.80, 0.

Green spaces are essential for urban environments, but urban expansion often results in fragmented patches and narrow pavements unsuitable for tree growth. Consequently, there is a pressing need for alternative vegetation in urban landscapes where tree planting is impractical. Urban spontaneous vegetation (USV)-plants that establish naturally without cultivation-shows promise for urban landscaping, and yet has been underexplored in urban ecology.

The palmyra palm (Borassus flabellifer) is an underutilized tropical plant whose fruit pulp can be processed into flour rich in carotenoids and dietary fiber. In southern Thailand, khanom doo (KD) is a traditional chewy rice dessert typically made with glutinous rice flour and sweeteners. However, most Thai desserts are high in sugar and lack functional nutrients.
