It is crucial to develop strategies for reducing our continued excessive global increases in fertilizer applications and to offset CO2 emissions. The pervasive underground hyphal networks of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) present an enticing bio‐stimulant and carbon sink. We inoculated Sudan‐grass plants with eight genotypically distinct strains of

Processing of Sorghum From Different Varieties and Hybrids for Semolina and Their Products [PDF]
The present study was undertaken with the objective to standardise procedures for preparation of semolina (rava) from sorghum, to identify the best genotype for preparation of semolina and to study the nutritional quality parameters of semolina.

A Review of Indigenous Food Crops in Africa and the Implications for more Sustainable and Healthy Food Systems [PDF]
Indigenous and traditional foods crops (ITFCs) have multiple uses within society, and most notably have an important role to play in the attempt to diversify the food in order to enhance food and nutrition security.

This study evaluated the population dynamics of stubby root nematodes (SRN) in field rotations with cover crops and the subsequent effect of this rotation on sugar beet quality and quantity attributes. It was clear that the SRN densities under field conditions are influenced by multiple factors, such as the type of cover crops grown, soil disturbance ...

Abstract Nitrogen (N) management has been identified as a major challenge for producers to maintain a profitable crop yield under an organic rice (Oryza sativa L.) production system compared to the conventional production system. Field experiments were conducted in 2010, 2015, and 2017 to evaluate the impact of different types and rates of organic soil

Abstract Multi‐parent populations are capable to dissect complex quantitative traits by capturing multiallelic variation compared to biparental populations. MAGIC B‐line (MBL) population is a multiparent advanced generation intercross (MAGIC) population developed at Clemson University using four diverse accessions of grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.)
