Core reference sets of sorghum and musa : from a whole collection to a mini core collection and back (W291) [PDF]
, 2011 The core approach for investigating genetic diversity in a crop germplasm collection has proven merits, among which the possibility to choose a sample of manageable size (e.g.

Field‐level crop choice responses to weather‐induced yield shocks in the US Corn Belt
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract As climate change increases the frequency and severity of extreme heat events, farmers are expected to face greater variability in crop yields. Using 10 million field‐level observations, this study examines how farmers in the US Corn Belt adjust corn–soybean rotation decisions in response to yield shocks largely driven by weather fluctuations.

Sugarcane mosaic and sorghum mosaic are caused by two different strains of Sugarcane mosaic virus in the Everglades Agricultural Area [PDF]
, 2019 Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) infects sugarcane and other species in the family Poaceae. In the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA) of south Florida, we detected SCMV in Columbus grass (Sorghum almum), maize (Zea mays), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), St ...

The economic foundations of powersharing: Evidence from Africa
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract How—and with whom—do rulers share power? Existing research focuses on the strategic logic of powersharing. In this paper, we analyze its economic foundations. Powersharing is modeled as a subnational fiscal contract, in which rulers allocate political representation based on constituencies’ revenue potential. Empirically, we combine historical

Life Cycle Assessment of Sweet Sorghum as Feedstock for Second-generation Biofuel Production [PDF]
, 2017 There exist few life cycle assessments (LCAs) in the literature that focus on the second-generation biofuel production from sweet sorghum, a non-food-source feedstock that offers several advantages in terms of farming requirements compared to corn or ...

AgronomyNitrogen is an essential macronutrient for crop growth. Although sorghum can tolerate poor soils, its low-nitrogen (LN) tolerance mechanisms remain underexplored. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to dissect

A three-part geometric model to predict the radar backscatter from wheat, corn, and sorghum [PDF]
A model to predict the radar backscattering coefficient from crops must include the geometry of the canopy. Radar and ground-truth data taken on wheat in 1979 indicate that the model must include contributions from the leaves, from the wheat head, and ...

Summer Annual Variety Trial [PDF]
, 2014 Warm season grasses, such as sorghum x sudangrass crosses, sudangrass, millets, and teff are high-yielding summer annuals that can provide quality forage in the hot summer months, when cool season grasses are not as productive.
