Sugar maple is a deciduous tree that can grow to a height of 50 to 130 feet. Sugar maple is the primary source for maple sugar and syrup. Sugar maple is also a valuable hardwood for a variety of products from flooring to cabinets. (University of Maine. Maine Sea Grant College Program, Midcoast Office. 2024.

Sugarcane is a tall-growing monocotyledonous crop that is cultivated in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world, primarily for its ability to store high concentrations of sucrose, or sugar, in the stem. (OECD, 2016. "Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.)", in Safety Assessment of Transgenic Organisms in the Environment, Volume 6: OECD Consensus Documents, OECD Publishing, Paris, https://doi.org/10.1787/9789264253421-5-en.)
Sugar crops are those crops cultivated primarily for the manufacture of sugar, secondarily for the production of alcohol (food and non-food) and ethanol. There are two main sugar crops: sugar beets and sugar cane. (FAO, 2024.

QTL mapping is a statistical association analysis between phenotype and genotype at specific locations across the genome. (https://doi.org/10.1080/26895293.2021.1888810)
Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is a colorless gas that smells like burnt matches. It can be chemically transformed into acidic pollutants such as sulphuric acid and sulpfates (sulphates are a major component of fine particles). SO2 is generally a byproduct of industrial processes and burning of fossil fuels. (Government of Canada, 2013. Toxic substances list: sulphur . dioxidehttps://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/management-toxic-substances/list-canadian-environmental-protection-act/sulphur-dioxide.html)
