In this study,the ecological risks for large-scale cultivation of four promising miscanthus species (Miscanthus sinensis, M. floridulus,M. sacchariflorus,M . lutarioriparius) and the European commercially used variety of Miscanthus ×giganteus were quantified. The quantification procedure was conducted using formerly established ecological risk assessment system for bioenergy grasses (Hereafter referred to as ERAB system). According to the quantification procedure of ERAB system, the distribution characteristics ( P1 ), reproductive characteris...
