Masakwa dry season cropping in the Chad Basin [PDF]
In the inundation area - the basin of the former larger Lake Chad - a special type of sorghum is grown on the clay soils (firgi). This dry-season guinea corn is also called dwarf sorghum or masakwa. In Kanuri, the dominant language in the region, sorghum

Biodiversity in the sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) germplasm of Pakistan [PDF]
Sorghum ranks fifth in worldwide economic importance among cereal crops and is one of the most important summer annual grasses of Pakistan. As it is a very diverse crop, sorghum genetic fingerprinting requires an efficient marker system. We estimated genetic divergence among 29 sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) genotypes, including approved varieties and local

ABSTRACT Future climatic scenario predictions indicate a substantial temperature increase, reducing crop production worldwide and demanding the development of adaptations in agriculture. This study aimed to assess the impact of high temperatures and amendments with Bacillus on nodulating bradyrhizobia.

Genotype × Environment Effects in Three Wild Relatives of Sorghum From Australia
Endemic 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

Genetic diversity of elite sweet sorghum genotypes assessed by SSR markers
To determine genetic diversity among 47 elite sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor ssp. bicolor L.) genotypes, 46 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers evenly distributed on all 10 chromosomes were selected.

Harnessing entomopathogenic fungi: A meta‐analysis on their role as plant growth promoters
Our meta‐analysis highlights the potential of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) as sustainable alternatives to chemical pesticides and fertilisers. By promoting plant growth and reducing reliance on agrochemicals, EPF can support healthier crops, minimise environmental contamination and improve profitability within food production systems.

Evaluation of cover crops in high tunnel vegetable rotation [PDF]
Organic vegetable production within high tunnels allows for an extended growing season, crop protection, and environmental control. The USDA National Organic Program (NOP) standards mandate evidence that the soil has been maintained and improved over the
