Exploring Germination to Unlock the Nutritional Potential of Sorghum (<i>Sorghum bicolor</i>). [PDF]
MoleculesThanks to its tolerance to drought, sorghum is a cereal crop that is extensively cultivated in the sub-Saharan region. Its good nutritional value makes it an interesting raw material for the food industry, although several anti-nutritional features pose a challenge to exploiting its full potential.

Assessing plant water status: Part 1 – Classical methods
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract As a result of the changing climate, water scarcity poses a significant threat to crop and pasture production. Although soil water content can indicate drought, its measurements often provide limited spatial resolution and are weakly correlated with plant water status, producing misleading drought assessments.

Chromosome Identification and Nomenclature of Sorghum bicolor [PDF]
Genetics, 2005 Abstract Linkage group identities and homologies were determined for metaphase chromosomes of Sorghum bicolor (2n = 20) by FISH of landed BACs. Relative lengths of chromosomes in FISH-karyotyped metaphase spreads of the elite inbred BTx623 were used to estimate the molecular size of each chromosome and to establish a size-based ...

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Silicon (Si) has been demonstrated to be an important element to enhance crop tolerance against salinity. Nevertheless, mechanisms underlying Si's mitigation of salt stress remains insufficiently explored and understood. This study aims to provide new insights into Si's impact on salt‐stressed Sorghum bicolor (L.) supplied or not ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The main aim of the study was to assess the toxicity of ash generated in household furnaces through the combustion of materials most commonly burned in individual households. The toxicity tests were conducted using plant bioassays with cress (Lepidium sativum), mustard (Sinapis) and sorghum (Sorghum) seeds.

Genotype × Environment Effects in Three Wild Relatives of Sorghum From Australia
Plant-Environment InteractionsEndemic wild Sorghum species are prevalent across northern Australia and could be useful for crop improvement; however, few studies have been done to quantify the phenotypic diversity of this tertiary gene pool. We aimed to assess the interactive effects
