Sweet sorghum:agronomic practice for food, animal feed and fuel production in Sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]
, 2019 Sweet sorghum is a cereal that belongs to the species Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench. Although the crop is reportedly native to Africa, it is grown worldwide largely because it thrives well under wide rainfall regimes, varied day lengths, soil conditions and

Identifying common crop traits to address the variability in tiller production between sorghum and rice canopies [PDF]
, 2006 Developing a common mechanistic model to predict tiller dynamics in sorghum and rice canopies growing in favorable conditions can greatly contribute to the identification of common genetic regions involved in tiller production of both species.

High-Temperature Stress Alleviation by Selenium Nanoparticle Treatment in Grain Sorghum
ACS Omega, 2018 The role of selenium nanoparticles (Se-NPs) in the mitigation of high-temperature (HT) stress in crops is not known. The uptake, toxicity and physiological and biological effects of Se-NPs under HT were investigated in grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.)
