Main conclusion Droughts negatively affect sorghum's productivity and nutritional quality.
Across its diversity centers, however, there exist resilient genotypes that function differently …

Sorghum is emerging as an excellent genetic model for the design of C4 grass bioenergy
crops. Annual energy Sorghum hybrids also serve as a source of biomass for bioenergy …

Decreasing fresh water supplies and increasing agricultural drought threaten sustainable
worldwide crop production. Consequently, there is a global priority to develop crops with …

Abstract Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is a C4 species sensitive to the cold spring
conditions that occur at northern latitudes, especially when coupled with excessive light, and …

A first‐generation energy sorghum hybrid with enhanced photoperiod sensitivity and long
growth duration accumulated more than twice as much biomass as grain sorghum. The …

A stay-green phenotype enhances the adaptation of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.)
Moench) to terminal drought, although the mechanisms leading to its expression remain …

Following advances in genetics, genomics, and phenotyping, trait selection in breeding is
limited by our ability to understand interactions within the plant and with the environment …

Sorghum is well adapted to water-limited conditions, but the traits responsible for this
enhanced adaptation under drought conditions remain unclear. In this study, yield …

The conversion efficiency (εc) of absorbed radiation into biomass (MJ of dry matter per MJ of
absorbed photosynthetically active radiation) is a component of yield potential that has been …

During the post-rainy (rabi) season in India around 3 million tonnes of sorghum grain is
produced from 5.7 million ha of cropping. This underpins the livelihood of about 5 million …
