Intercropping forage cactus and sorghum in a semi-arid environment improves biological efficiency and competitive ability through interspecific complementarity

, 2021
The intercropping systems of species adapted to conditions of water deficit, such as sorghum (Sorghum spp.) and forage cacti (Nopalea spp. and Opuntia spp.), can contribute to an improvement in the biomass yield of semi-arid agricultural areas.

Transgenic Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor)

2000
Sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, is the fifth most important cereal in the world. It was domesticated from Sorghum bicolor subsp. arundinaceum in northeast Aftica, and is presently grown widely in semiarid areas of central and north Africa, India, China, and the Americas (Doggett 1988).

Alpha amylase inhibitors in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor)

Plant Foods for Human Nutrition, 1993
Forty varieties of sorghum grown locally and four cereals were screened for inhibitory activity against human salivary amylase. Three varieties of sorghum (IS-22422, Nagi Monadi and Ngd Marnm) had maximum inhibitory activity of 124 units. Among the cereals rice had the lowest inhibitory activity.

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) as a potential source of bioactive substances and their biological properties

Critical reviews in food science and nutrition, 2020
Sorghum is the fifth cereal most produced in the world after wheat, rice, maize, and barley. In some regions, this crop is replacing maize, due to its high yield, resistance to drought and heat.

Efficiency of heavy metals-tolerant plant growth promoting bacteria for alleviating heavy metals toxicity on sorghum

Environmental and Experimental Botany, 2019
A green-house experiment was conducted to investigate the efficiency of three heavy metal-tolerant plant growth promoting bacterial strains (HMT-PGPB) (Alcaligenes faecalis MG257493.1, Bacillus cereus MG257494.1 and Alcaligenes faecalis MG966440.1 to ...

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.).

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2006
This chapter describes a stepwise protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated sorghum genetic transformation. Immature embryos from sorghum plants were used as the target explants. The Agrobacterium strain LBA4404, carrying a "super-binary" vector, was used in this protocol.
