Volatile Constituents of Mold-Susceptible and Mold Resistant Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] Grains [PDF]

, 1995
Headspace volatile compounds of mold-susceptible and mold-resistant sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] grains were determined. The concentrations of volatile compounds in mold-susceptible sorghum were higher than those of mold-resistant sorghum. Among

Screening for Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) Resistance in Early‐Maturing Tropical Maize Adapted to Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

Genotype dependent interspecific hybridization of Sorghum bicolor

, 2006
Wild Australian Sorghum species are a tertiary gene pool to grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench], and they are of interest to breeders because of their resistance to important insects and pathogens.

Genome-Wide Identification of Sorghum bicolor Laccases Reveals Potential Targets for Lignin Modification

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Laccase is a key enzyme in plant lignin biosynthesis as it catalyzes the final step of monolignols polymerization. Sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is considered as an ideal feedstock for ethanol production, but lignin greatly limits the ...

A Century of Understanding and Harnessing Heterosis

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterosis has shaped modern plant breeding since Darwin's 19th century observations that outcrossing restores vigour lost through selfing. While 100 years old, its mechanistic basis and deployability remain actively debated. Classical models of dominance, overdominance and epistasis provided the foundation for hybrid breeding and converted ...

Phytoremediation of cesium-contaminated soils using Sorghum bicolor, Albizia falcataria, Amaranthus viridis, and Vetiveria zizanioides in tropical environments

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
Radioactive cesium (Cs-137) contamination in soil presents serious environmental and health concerns due to its long-lasting presence and high mobility.

Genetic Analysis of East African Sorghum Genotypes for Yield Components and Iron and Zinc Composition

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a vital cereal crop in dry regions worldwide. However, in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), grain yields from currently grown varieties remain low (< 1 ton/ha) and exhibit variable nutrient composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to undertake a genetic analysis of selected East African‐adapted ...

Time‐series multi‐omics analysis of micronutrient stress in Sorghum bicolor reveals iron and zinc crosstalk and regulatory network conservation

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Overlap between Fe and Zn responsive gene regulatory networks (GRNs) were found, indicative of micronutrient crosstalk, and conservation of root and leaf GRNs and genes suggests strong constraint on homeostasis networks in plants. Abstract Micronutrient stress impacts growth, biomass production, and grain yield in crops.

Cover crops growth under water deficit
Crescimento de plantas de cobertura sob déficit hídrico

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2013
One of the challenges to be overcome in no till deploying in tropical regions is the production of straw in the offseason, a period commonly with low water availability. To help in the choice of species to be used as cover crop in dry winter regions, the

Assessment of Alternative Warm-Season Annual Grasses for Forage Production in Water-Limited Environments

Grasses
As traditional forage crops demand substantial water, exploring alternatives with lower water demands can mitigate the strain on water supplies. This pot study evaluated five annual warm-season forages (forage sorghum (FS) [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench ...
