Brown rot-type fungal decomposition of sorghum bagasse: variable success and mechanistic implications
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2018)
Sweet sorghum is a promising crop for a warming, drying African climate, and basic information is lacking on conversion
pathways for its lignocellulosic residues (bagasse). Brown rot wood-decomposer fungi use carbohydra ...
Mapping and characterisation of the sorghum cell suspension culture secretome
(Academic Journals, 2011)
Here we reported the first secretomic study of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), a naturally drought tolerant cereal crop. In this study, we used a gel-based proteomic approach in combination with mass spectrometry to separate ...
Antioxidant responses are associated with differences in drought tolerance between maize and sorghum
(Arid land institute, 2021)
Drought is a major cause of decreased yield in crops worldwide. Sorghum
(Sorghum bicolor) and maize (Zea mays) are two of the key crops in Africa
serving as human food as well as livestock feed. For improved crop ...
Green-synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles mitigate salt stress in sorghum bicolor
(MDPI, 2022)
Salinity is an abiotic stress that is responsible for more than 50% of crop losses worldwide.
Current strategies to overcome salinity in agriculture are limited to the use of genetically modified
crops and chemicals ...
Recent advancements in the breeding of sorghum crop: current status and future strategies for marker-assisted breeding
(Frontiers, 2023)
Sorghum is emerging as a model crop for functional genetics and genomics of tropical grasses with abundant uses, including food, feed, and fuel, among others. It is currently the fifth most significant primary cereal crop. ...
