Special issue in honour of Prof. Reto J. Strasser - JIP-test as a tool to identify salinity tolerance in sweet sorghum genotypes

Photosynthetica (Praha), 2020
The effect of salinity on primary photochemical reactions (using JIP-test) in six sweet sorghum genotypes was tested. An increase in salt concentrations induced significantly the accumulation of proline and caused a decline in leaf osmotic potential ...

Nitrate Increases Cadmium Accumulation in Sweet Sorghum for Improving Phytoextraction Efficiency Rather Than Ammonium

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Sweet sorghum has potential for phytoextraction of cadmium (Cd) owning to its large biomass and relatively high Cd tolerance. Nitrogen affects both growth and Cd concentrations in plants. However, different forms of nitrogen effects on Cd accumulation in

Sweet Sorghum Genotypes Tolerant and Sensitive to Nitrogen Stress Select Distinct Root Endosphere and Rhizosphere Bacterial Communities

Microorganisms, 2021
The belowground microbiomes have many beneficial functions that assist plant growth, including nutrient cycling, acquisition and transport, as well as alleviation of stresses caused by nutrient limitations such as nitrogen (N).

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.

Identification of a bacterial-type ATP-binding cassette transporter implicated in aluminum tolerance in sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.)

Plant Signalling & Behavior, 2021
Aluminum (Al) toxicity in acidic soils severely reduces crop production worldwide. Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is an important agricultural crop widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions, where Al toxicity is prevalent. ATP-binding cassette (ABC)

Sweet sorghum:agronomic practice for food, animal feed and fuel production in Sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]

, 2019
Sweet sorghum is a cereal that belongs to the species Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench. Although the crop is reportedly native to Africa, it is grown worldwide largely because it thrives well under wide rainfall regimes, varied day lengths, soil conditions and

Review of the Challenges and Prospects in Agrivoltaics

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
This articles reviews the recent prospects of agri‐photovoltaics (agri‐PV) across continents. The existing standards and pilot projects to standardize new codes and regulations are discussed. The state‐of‐the‐art agri‐PV scheme's benefits and lackings are presented. Community acceptance and policy barriers are also discussed where prospective solutions

Quantitative Trait Loci mapping for sugar-related traits in sweet sorghum based on high-density SNP markers : P0187 [PDF]

, 2013
Sweet sorghum, a C4 tropical grass, is becoming an important bioenergy crop. Characterizing quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling sugar content in its stem can lead to the identification of target regions for molecular breeding programs.
