Abstract
Bamboos are a diverse group of mostly evergreen perennial flowering plants making up the subfamily Bambusoideae of the grass family Poaceae. Giant bamboos are the largest members of the grass family, in the case of Dendrocalamus sinicus individual culms reaching a length of 46 meters, up to 36 centimeters in thickness and a weight of up to 450 kilograms (Xinhua, 2003). Although primarily used in construction projects as wood, bamboo is actually a grass. Despite being primarily used in construction projects as wood, bamboo is actually a grass. Its capacity to fastly regenerate is facilitated by the fact that it is a species of grass. However, bamboo has the potential to grow much taller and wider than the typical lawn grass. Because bamboo has significant rates of carbon sequestration and generate carbon credits, which are traded internationally, In Bamboo cultivation there is a chance that it could generate carbon credits. Infertile land can be used for bamboo farming to increase the fertility of the soil and bring in more revenue for farmers. For the sustainable use of genetic diversity, its protection, and upcoming research, several efforts have been made in recent years to characterize various bamboo species using molecular markers.
