Bio-oil production from hydrothermal liquefaction of Pennisetum purpureum × Pennisetum typhoideum
Among renewable and sustainable energy resources, biomass plays a vital role. Agricultural residues/wastes, energy crops, and lignocellulosic biomass could potentially be major feedstocks for biorefineries. In Thailand, one of the most interesting energy crops is hybrid giant Juncao grass (GJG) or Pennisetum purpureum × Pennisetum typhoideum.

ABSTRACT Induction of apomixis, or clonal reproduction through seed, could economise commercial hybrid seed production and enable smallholder farmers to save and sow hybrid seed. Here, we demonstrate the synthetic induction of apomixis in two sorghum hybrids and show that the clonal hybrid seed can be maintained across multiple seed generations.

Abstract In climate change–vulnerable, food‐insecure semi‐arid regions of Sub‐Saharan Africa, limited studies compared the performance of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.)] landraces and improved genotypes under staggered sowing to establish their interactions, resulting in a generalization that landraces are lower yielding than their improved ...

Dynamics of Sahelian pastures in relation to drought and grazing [PDF]
Plant cuticular n-alkanes have been successfully used as markers to estimate diet composition and intake of grazing herbivores. However, additional markers may be required under grazing conditions in botanically diverse vegetation.

Abstract Enhancing feed resource availability and nutritional qualities with healthful soil management practices is a decisive intervention for future livestock husbandry in developing countries. However, there is a need for sound recommendations on agronomic practices and fertilization due to local differences in the climate and soil profiles ...

Abstract Despite the promising potential of soybean [Glycine max L. (Merrill)] production in Ethiopia, smallholder farmers face challenges such as low yields and nutrient deficiencies, which limit their productivity and economic stability. Thus, the objectives of the input diagnosis/demonstration trials were to enhance the yields of smallholder soybean
