Grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a relatively drought- and heat-resistant crop. World wide it is used as feed and food grain. In Australia, it is used as a feed grain and is grown under rain-fed conditions. Water availability to the plant is the major constraint to production.

Background on Grain Sorghum Usage
2019Sorghum acreage increased significantly as a result of hybridization of the crop in the 1950s. This increase brought the cattle feeding industry to the High Plains; however, demand for the crop in this industry waned, and acres fell significantly due to unfavorable shifts in federal policy. The rise of the modern ethanol industry led to a resurgence in

The expression of heterosis for yield and yield attributes in a set of fortytwo cross combinations evolved from three male sterile lines and fourteen testers of sorghum was studied. Observations were recorded on six yield component character. Significant heterosis was recorded by all the hybrids over better parent for panicle length.

Associative Effects of Sorghum Silage and Sorghum Grain Diets
Journal of Animal Science, 1987A metabolism trial was conducted to quantitate associative effects between sorghum silage and sorghum grain, and to identify responsible factors. Diets were formulated by mixing ground sorghum grain (0, 15, 30, 45 and 60% of diet dry matter) with sorghum silage and were adjusted to 15.0% crude protein with soybean meal.

Toxigenicity of fungi from grain sorghum
Mycopathologia, 1981The mycoflora of nine varieties of grain sorghum was determined by plating serial dilutions of ground samples on rose bengal-streptomycin agar. Seventeen species of fungi representing 10 genera were identified. Curvularia, Penicillium, Mucor, and Aspergillus were dominant genera. Extracts of P.

Tannin Analysis in Sorghum Grains
2019Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) contains a wide variety of phenolic compounds and their levels and types depend on the genotype. Sorghums with a pigmented testa contain condensed tannins, which are concentrated in the pigmented testa. In this chapter, three methods of tannin analysis are described: (1) Chlorox bleach test; (2) modified vanillin ...

DNA polymorphisms in grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 1993Molecular markers [random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)] were used to determine the frequency of DNA polymorphism in grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench). Twenty-nine oligonucleotide primers were employed for RAPDs, generating a total of 262 DNA fragments, of which 145 were polymorphic in at

There are well over a thousand races of Grain Sorghums under cultivation all over the world. Without an exception all of them are diploid with 2n = 20 chromosomes. Haploids and triploids have been reported as rare occurrents (Brown 1943; Price and Ross 1955). Under experimental conditions Chin (1946) by colchicine treatment produced autotetraploids and

The composition of sorghum grain oilandropogon sorghum var.vulgaris
Oil & Soap, 1946Sorghum grain was found to contain approximately 50 times more wax and two-thirds as much oil as corn. The wax, which had properties similar to carnauba wax, could be removed by extracting the unground grain with hot solvent.
