“…Besides, reference [32] overviewed the importance of DNA barcoding in bamboo identification, the ongoing research into the use of DNA markers in bamboo taxonomy and biosystematics, as well as the challenges encountered. The current path for bamboo improvement was highlighted by [33], culminating in a better understanding, conservation and improvement of bamboo for the future. The role of biotechnology [34], especially the areas of molecular genetics, genomics and quantitative genetics that can benefit bamboo production, have also been highlighted.…”

“…As a result, the need for non-wood resources as a replacement for wood has increased. Bamboos have been traditionally used as a construction material for rural housing and food, as well as handicraft products [33], and the use of bamboo has been explored recently for construction in a variety of engineering applications, such as housing, bridges and flooring. Besides, most studies on their mechanical properties have shown that bamboo is one of the renewable, sustainable materials with a biomass yield per hectare comparable to tropical forest hardwood [48].…”

Bamboos represent an emerging forest resource of economic significance and provide an avenue for sustainable development of forest resources. The development of the commercial bamboo industry is founded upon efficient molecular and technical approaches for the selection and rapid multiplication of elite germplasm for its subsequent propagation via commercial agro-forestry business enterprises. This review will delve into the micropropagation of Dendrocalamus asper, one of the most widely cultivated commercial varieties of bamboo, and will encompass the selection of germplasm, establishment of explants in vitro and micropropagation techniques. The currently available information pertaining to molecular biology, DNA barcoding and breeding, has been included, and potential areas for future research in the area of genetic engineering and gene regulation have been highlighted. This information will be of relevance to both commercial breeders and molecular biologists who have an interest in establishing bamboo as a crop of the future.

“…Los bambúes que pertenecen a la subfamilia Bambusoideae exhiben gran diversidad genética distribuida alrededor del mundo, excepto en la Antártida y Europa (Clark et al 2015). El bambú representa a las especies leñosas con mayor impacto económico, social, ecológico y ambiental a nivel global (Clark et al 2015, Thapa et al 2018. En el Perú se desarrollan distintas especies de bambú, tanto nativas como introducidas (Olivier 2008), siendo Guadua angustifolia Kunth.…”

The efficient establishment of nodal segments during the micropropagation of Guadua angustifolia is limited by factors such as the high percentage of microbial contamination and necrosis due to the exudation of phenols. Therefore, this study aimed at evaluating the effect of different concentrations of two broad-spectrum biocides (Germon and PPM TM ) and the consistency of the culture medium (liquid and semi-solid) on the response to the in vitro establishment of G. angustifolia The experiment was established under a completely randomized design (DCA) with factorial arrangement. Data were subjected to an analysis of variance and Duncan's test (P ≤ 0.05). Results indicate that the explants treated with 1 mL L -1 of Germon 80 for 10 min had a lower percentage of oxidation, although to reduce microbial contamination it is necessary to increase the disinfection time and the concentration of the disinfectant agent. On the other hand, the addition of 2 mL L -1 of Plant Preservative Mixture (PPM TM ) to the culture medium allowed improving the control of endophytic contaminants, favoring the efficient development and elongation of axillary shoots. Regarding the culture media, it can be mentioned that the use of liquid medium generally led to better responses in the in vitro establishment of the explants.

“…Bamboo has great potential as an alternative to wood for many applications [15][16][17]. Since 20 th century, bamboo has received increasing attention for industrial applications, especially as raw material for wood-based composites, such as particleboard (PB), medium density fiberboard (MDF), hard fiber board (HB), plywood, oriented strand board (OSB), zephyr board, laminated bamboo lumber, parallel strand lumber (PSL) and oriented strand lumber (OSL), inorganic-bonded board (i.e., cement), wood plastic composites (WPC).The reasons of using bamboo strips as the alternative raw materials for wood composites are for their fast growing nature, high productivity, quick maturity and high strength with advancement in processing technology [18].…”

Bamboo has recently entered the composite sector with some attractive labels such as â€˜greenâ€™. The current commercial manufacturing method of bamboo composite removes the nodeâ€™s portion of bamboo culm during bamboo processing. This method generates a high amount of solid waste materials along with processing complexity and the scientific merit of this practice is also questionable. This research investigates the effects of culm nodes on bamboo based composite properties. In this study an approach to produce bamboo strips reinforced epoxy composites and their mechanical properties (e.g. tensile, flexural and impact properties) were reported. It was demonstrated that mechanical properties of composites slightly varied with nodes and internodes. As expected, the addition of bamboo strips has significantly improved mechanical properties of polymeric resin. Composites along with nodes part had the highest mechanical properties in terms of tensile strength, tensile modulus and flexural strength. In contrast, composites made with internodes showed the highest mechanical properties in terms of tensile strain and impact strength. However, the difference between their mechanical properties were not significant which revealed that bamboo node may be used as potential materials in bio-based composite industry.
