Association mapping of germinability and seedling vigor in sorghum under controlled low-temperature conditions
Sorghum is one of the world’s most important food, feed, and fiber crops as well as a potential feedstock
for lignocellulosic bioenergy. Early-season planting extends sorghum’s growing season and increases yield in
temperate ...

Analysis of genetic variation in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) genotypes with various agronomical traits using SPAR methods
Genetic variation among 45 genotypes of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) representing seven subpopulations was
assessed using three single primer amplification reaction (SPAR) methods viz., inter-simple sequence repeat
(ISSR), ...
Plant growth-promotion by Streptomyces spp. in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.)
Seven strains of Streptomyces spp.: BCA-546 (KF770898), BCA-659 (KF770889), BCA-667 (KF770888),
BCA-689 (KF770899), BCA-698 (KF770900), CAI-133 (KF770895) and CAI-8 (KF770890), reported earlier
to produce biocontrol and ...
Heterosis and Inbreeding Depression in Tropical Sweet Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)
An investigation carried out during two seasons viz., rainy 2009
and rainy 2010 to study heterosis and inbreeding depression of
four crosses of sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)
and their F2 have revealed positive ...
Identification of QTLs and underlying candidate genes controlling grain Fe and Zn concentration in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L). Moench]
Biofortification is one of sustainable options for combating micronutrientmalnutrition.
For identifying genomic regions associated with
grain Fe and Zn in sorghum, RIL population (342 individuals) from cross 296B × PVK 801 ...
Characterization of potential probiotic bacteria isolated from sorghum and pearl millet of the semi-arid tropics
The present study was conducted to isolate and characterize probiotic properties of bacteria isolated
from flour and batter samples of sorghum and pearl millet. A total of five different selective media
including plate ...
Components of resistance to sorghum shoot fly, Atherigona soccata
Sorghum shoot fly, Atherigona soccata is
one of the major constraints in sorghum production,
and host plant resistance is one of the components to
control sorghum shoot fly. Thirty sorghum genotypes
were evaluated for ...
Fermentation of Pretreated High-Biomass Sorghum Hydrolysates to Biohydrogen by Mixed Consortia
In the present study, hydrolysate generated
during pretreatment of high-biomass sorghum as a carbon
source for biohydrogen production was investigated. The
high-biomass sorghum bagasse (HBS) was pretreated using
acid (H2SO4) ...
Capsicum annuum proteinase inhibitor ingestion negatively impacts the growth of sorghum pest Chilo partellus and promotes differential protease expression
Background: Chilo partellus is an important insect pest infesting sorghum and maize. The larvae internalize in
the stem, rendering difficulties in pest management. We investigated the effects of Capsicum annuum
proteinase ...
