Assessing the Potential of Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) for Storing Carbon Belowground: Insights from a Multi-Site US Study

Eric W. Slessarev, Jennifer Pett‐Ridge, Kyungjin Min, Asmeret Asefaw Berhe, Srabani Das, Randall D. Jackson, JULIE D. JASTROW, Megan Kan, Sandeep Kumar, Todd L. Longbottom, Karis J. McFarlane, Erik Oerter, Brian K. Richards, G. Philip Robertson, Gregg R. Sanford, Erin Nuccio

This study evaluates switchgrass's impact on belowground carbon storage by comparing it to annual crops across multiple sites, finding increased root biomass but uncertain overall SOC effects.
