Sweet sorghum is a promising target for biofuel production. It is a C4 crop with low input
requirements and accumulates high levels of sugars in its stalks. However, large-scale …

Recent developments have altered our view of molecular mechanisms that determine sink
strength, defined here as the capacity of non-photosynthetic structures to compete for import …

Bioenergy is the reduction of carbon via photosynthesis. Currently, this energy is harvested
as liquid fuel through fermentation. A major concern, however, is input cost, in particular use …

Bioenergy crops currently provide the only source of alternative energy with the potential to
reduce the use of fossil transportation fuels in a way that is compatible with existing engine …

Abstract Background Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) cultivars store non-structural
carbohydrates predominantly as either starch in seeds (grain sorghums) or sugars in stems …

Simple Summary Sorghum is a climate-resilient crop grown in limited rainfall areas globally.
However, climate change has increased temperature and shortened rainfall durations …

Background Sorghum belongs to the tribe of the Andropogoneae that includes potential
biofuel crops like switchgrass, Miscanthus and successful biofuel crops like corn and …

Background Biological scientists have long sought after understanding how genes and their
structural/functional changes contribute to morphological diversity. Though both grain (BT× …

Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc.) is an underutilised legume crop, which
has long been recognised as a protein-rich and drought-tolerant crop, used extensively in …

The objective of this work was to evaluate the diversity and genetic relationships between
lines and varieties of the sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) germplasm bank of the National …
