Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a vital cereal crop in dry regions worldwide. However, in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), grain yields from currently grown varieties remain low (< 1 ton/ha) and exhibit variable nutrient composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to undertake a genetic analysis of selected East African‐adapted ...

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 19, 14 October 2026.A green approach to esterify wheat starch by reactive extrusion using a novel deep eutectic solvent has been developed. The DES acted both as a starch solvent and as an activating agent to complete the esterification within 15–30 min. This novel approach opens new opportunities for the development and upscaling of biobased polymers with promising ...

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 10, Page 2802-2814, October 2026.ABSTRACT The biopharmaceutical industry increasingly relies on single‐use technologies (SUT) for operational flexibility. For a long time, SUT was considered more sustainable than stainless‐steel (SST) systems due to water and energy savings. This study re‐evaluates this paradigm via a detailed bottom‐up analysis of the SUT carbon footprint at the 2000
