The clumping bamboos, such as those in the " Bambusa " genus, create new plants by growing new shoots very near the base of existing plants, as opposed to the " running " types like those found in the Phyllostachys family which send " runners " or rhizomes out several meters before sprouting a new shoot.

Regular rodent outbreaks associated with bamboo flowering ( and subsequent fruiting and seeding ) also occur in the nearby Indian states of Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, and Nagaland, as well as in Laos, Japan, Madagascar and South America . " Thingtam ", a similar famine, occurs with the flowering of another bamboo, " Bambusa tulda ".

The genus formerly contained several Asiatic species, but these are now generally considered to be better suited to other genera ( primarily " Dendrocalamus " or " Gigantochloa " but see also " Bambusa Cephalostachyum Pseudoxytenanthera Schizostachyum Yushania " ); However, molecular studies show species of " Oxytenanthera " quite distinct from " Dendrocalamus " spp.

Besides aluminum or tin, organic material such as leaves ( of tree, " Nelumbo nucifera " lotus, " Dendrocalamus latiflorus Munro " bamboo aka Bambusa oldhamii ( ���zI?), phragmites, plantain, taro, etc . ), husks ( of corn, " Phyllostachys makinoi " bamboo ( Bh�z \ | ), etc . ), and skins of fruit ( citrus, etc . ) are also frequently employed.
