The Genetic Diversity of 69 Widely Used Chinese Sorghum Hybrids Released between the 1970s and 2010s
AgronomySorghum has a long history of cultivation in China. In this study, we aimed to clarify the genetic relationships and genetic variation trends in widely used Chinese sorghum hybrids which were released from the 1970s to 2010s and attempted to analyze the ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Using field‐based holo‐omics, we demonstrate that developmental shifts in sorghum leaf metabolomes drive a noncanonical fungal succession from stress tolerators (S) through ruderals (R) to competitors (C). Antifungal metabolites in young leaves select for S strategists with expanded genomes, transient maltose pulses during flowering favor fast‐growing ...

, 2016 A collection of diverse germplasm is the foundation for the genetic improvement of crop plants. Sorghum is a versatile crop and a staple food for the poorest parts of Africa. It is a crop endowed with one of the highest genetic diversity. Worldwide, there are close to a quarter million sorghum accessions collected and maintained by national and ...

BMC Plant BiologyBackground On tropical regions, phosphorus (P) fixation onto aluminum and iron oxides in soil clays restricts P diffusion from the soil to the root surface, limiting crop yields. While increased root surface area favors P uptake under low-P availability,

The promising variety-samples of bastard saffron (Carthamus Tinctorius l.) In the Saratov region
Зерновое хозяйство России, 2019 The article presents the results of a long-term study of the bastard saffron variety samples (Carthamus tinctorius L.) in the FSBSI RRPtISM “Rossorgo”. In the Saratov region there are significant microzones with extremely dry conditions, but suitable for

Effects of total replacement of corn silage with sorghum silage on milk yield, composition, and quality [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: In the last years, difficulties occurring in corn cultivation (i.e., groundwater shortages, mycotoxin contamination) have been forcing dairy farmers to consider alternative silages.
