Comparative proteomics analysis between maize and sorghum uncovers important proteins and metabolic pathways mediating drought tolerance
(MDPI, 2023)
Drought severely affects crop yield and yield stability. Maize and sorghum are major crops
in Africa and globally, and both are negatively impacted by drought. However, sorghum has a better
ability to withstand drought ...
Green synthesis of iron oxide (hematite) nanoparticles and their influence on sorghum bicolor growth under drought stress
(MDPI, 2023)
Drought is a major abiotic stress that confronts plant growth and productivity, thus
compromising food security. Plants use physiological and biochemical mechanisms to cope with
drought stress, but at the expense of ...
Characterization and expression analysis of heme oxygenase genes from sorghum bicolor
(SAGE Publications, 2019)
Heme oxygenases (HOs) have a major role in phytochrome chromophore biosynthesis, and chromophores in turn have antioxidant
properties. Plant heme oxygenases are divided into the HO1 sub-family comprising HO1, HO3, and ...
Identification and characterization of a heat-inducible Hsp70 gene from Sorghum bicolor which confers tolerance to thermal stress
(Springer, 2015)
This study describes the first detailed molecular
characterization of the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) gene
from Sorghum bicolor, MN1618 designated as SbHsp70-1.
The full-length cDNA of SbHsp70-1 consists of 2524 bp ...
