Abstract:
Water and heat stressors during flowering are predominant limitations of dryland sorghum yields across Australia’s north-eastern cropping zone. Crops sown early could flower before seasonal heatwaves, but the seed must uniformly germination and emerge at soil temperatures between approximately 10 to 15 °C. Furthermore, chemical coatings applied to commercial hybrid seed lots effectively protected the developing crop from pest, disease and herbicide damage but the combined influence of low temperatures and seed coatings on germination of hybrid sorghum seed batches is unknown. In this experiment, germination dynamics were modelled for 10 commercial sorghum hybrid-seed lots (with or without seed coating of a.i. thiamethoxam, oxabetrinil and thiram) incubated at continuous temperatures ranging from 9.4 to 46.1 °C. Results also show commercial seed treatments negatively affect final germination proportion especially at sub- and supra-optimal temperatures. Some hybrid-seed lots in current experiment were more sensitive to seed coatings at either sub- or supra-optimal temperatures regardless of seed germination capability (i.e., germination proportion at 25 °C). Seeds took 5 days to reach 50% germination (t50) at 9.4 °C but germinated within 24 h at constant temperatures between 20 and 40 °C. The spread of germination (time between 10 and 90% germination) increased from 0.5 days at 30 °C to 3.8 days at 9.4 °C. Therefore, some hybrid-seedlots are suited to early sowing because they can maintain high germination proportion (>90%) even at soil temperatures (9.4 °C) as long as the seedbed remains moist for a least 12 days. Research continues identify the basis of cold tolerance in some-hybrid seedlots.

Abstract:
The study involved the stability analysis of the parents and hybrids, using line x tester mating design. Twenty four hybrids along with their ten parents and checks ((SSG 59-3 and MFSH 4)) were evaluated at two locations with two dates of sowing (Early and late sowing) during the kharif season of 2015-16 for quality traits. Data on different qualiitative characters at first cut (55 days after sowing) and second cut (45 days after first cut) were recorded. Stable hybrids are desirable for commercial exploitation over a wide range of agro-climatic conditions. It is clear that mean sum of squares due to genotypes for all the characters were highly significant when tested against pooled deviation, which revealed that the hybrids had significant differences in response to varying environmental conditions. Five hybrids were found to have both bi and ¯Sdi2 significant, indicating the presence of both linear and non-linear components of G × E interaction for protein content. Hybrids 56A × IS 2389 was found stable, average responsive and suitable for all the test environments for IVDMD. The cross combination of 14A × HJ 513, 31A × HJ 541 and 14A × IS 2389 were found stable, average responsive and suitable for all the test environments for HCN content. On the otherhand, hybrids 465A × G 46 and 465A × IS 2389 and parent G 46 were found highly responsive and suitable for the favourable environments. Therefore, these hybrids can be utilized in further genetic study in future in plant breeding.

Abstract:
Nitrogen merupakan unsur hara esensial tanaman yang diperlukan paling banyak dibandingkan unsur hara lainnya. Namun demikian, pemberian pupuk N secara terus menerus berdampak pada menurunnya daya dukung lahan. Zeolit yang dapat digunakan untuk mengefisiensikan penyerapan N. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengkaji dampak pemberian zeolit pada berbagai taraf pemberian N pada tanaman sorgum dilakukan dari bulan April hingga Juli 2017 di lahan sawah Desa Sumberduren, Kabupaten Kediri, menggunakan Rancangan Petak Terpisah dengan menempatkan dosis pupuk N (50%, 100% dan 150%) pada petak utama, dan dosis zeolit (0%, 50%, 100% dan 150%) pada anak petak yang diulang 3 kali. Ada tidaknya interaksi atau pengaruh nyata menggunakan Uji F taraf 5% dan dilanjutkan Uji BNJ taraf 5% untuk mengetahui perbedaan diantara perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dosis N 50% pada zeolite 150% mendapatkan hasil biji sorghum sebesar 3,32 t ha-1. Adapun dosis N 100% dan 150 % mengurangi penggunaan zeolite sebesar 43,5% dan 48,12% dengan hasil biji sorghum sebanyak 4,56 t ha-1 dan 5,15 t ha-1. Aplikasi 50% dan 100% zeolit dapat menekan penggunaan N sebesar 13,67% dan 16,19%.ABSTRACTNitrogen is an essential nutrient and needed in the highest amount compared to other elements. However, the continuous use of nitrogen causes a decrease in the carrying capacity of the land. Therefore to anticipate these problems, zeolite applications is prior to be done. The study aimed to assess the effect of N and zeolite application on sorghum plants which had been carried out from April to July 2017 in paddy fields in Sumberduren Village, Kediri Regency. Split Plot Design was used in this study by placing N fertilizer doses (50%, 100% and 150%) as the main plot, and zeolite dosage (0%, 50%, 100% and 150%) on subplots repeated 3 times. F test at 5% was used to determine the effect of treatments, while the average difference between treatments were referred to HSD value at 5%. The using of 100% and 150% N dosages could reduce the zeolite usage about 43.5% and 48.12% with sorghum yield as much as 4.56 t ha‐1 and 5.15 t ha-1 respectively. However, with the application of 50% and 100% zeolite, it can reduce N use by 13.67% and 16.19%.

Abstract:
Due to climatic barriers, the genetic variability of Sorghum varieties decreases away from the gene centre, therefore hybrids cultivated in Hungary are restricted to a relatively limited genetic basis. This limited genetic basis results in a lower rate of genetic improvement, so the genetic basis of cytoplasm factors are to be extended. We enhanced the diversity of primary materials by fast neutron treatment. As a result of this treatment we detected sterile, deformed specimens with double panicles in the stock treated with a dose of 12.5 Gy in the M1 generation. Agronomically usefulspecimens were found in the stock treated with 10 Gy and 7.5 Gy doses, where the leaf area index (LAI) and Harvest- index gave higher values than those of the control group. In the stock treated with 5 Gy dose, variations were less significant. In the reseeded M2 generation we detected albino specimens with extreme chlorophyll defects in the 10 Gy Zádor stock.

Abstract:
The forty four promising sorghum genotypes were evaluated for variability, correlation and path analysis for yield and yield contributing characters, at Sorghum improvement Project, Mahatma Phule Krishi Vidyapeeth, Rahuri during Rabi-2019-20. High estimates of PCV and GCV were observed for traits no. of green leaves per plant at harvest, panicle length (cm), panicle width (cm), panicle weight (g), harvest index and grain yield per plant (g).High estimates of heritability along with high genetic advance were recorded for plant height (cm), no. of green leaves per plant at harvest, panicle length (cm), panicle width (cm), panicle weight (g), 1000 grain weight (g), dry fodder yield per plant (g), harvest index and grain yield per plant (g).Correlation studies revealed a positive and significant association of grain yield with plant height (cm), number of internodes per plant, number of green leaves per plant at harvest, panicle length (cm), panicle width (cm), panicle weight (g), 1000 grain weight (g), dry fodder yield per plant (g) and harvest index at both genotypic and phenotypic level. Harvest index, panicle weight, dry fodder yield per plant, days to maturity and no. of internodes per plant recorded high magnitudes of direct effects accompanied by highly significant correlation with the grain yield at genotypic level, indicating true and perfect relationship between them. Thus suggesting that selection for these traits viz., harvest index, panicle weight, dry fodder yield per plant, days to maturity and no. of internodes per plant will be highly rewarding for improving the grain yield per plant.

Abstract:
Purpose – This paper aims to focus on the effect of Sorghum bicolour on the quality characteristics of chevon cutlets and to evaluate the effect of clove oil on the storage quality of aerobically packaged chevon cutlets. Design/methodology/approach – Three levels of sorghum flour, namely, 2, 4 and 6 per cent, were incorporated in the formulation, and the products developed were assessed for various physicochemical, sensory, texture and colour parameters. Chevon cutlets containing optimum level of sorghum flour were treated with clove oil (100 ppm) and evaluated for storage quality for 15 days under refrigerated conditions (4 ± 1°C). The products were analysed for various physicochemical, microbiological and sensory parameters. Findings – Crude fibre, texture parameters, i.e. hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness, gumminess and product redness value, showed significant (p < 0.05) increasing trend, whereas moisture per cent, fat content and overall acceptability decreased significantly (p < 0.05) with increasing levels of incorporation. Chevon cutlets containing 6 per cent sorghum flour were optimized as best. Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance value (mg malonaldehyde/kg), total plate count (cfu/g) and psychrophillic count (cfu/g) showed a significant increasing trend (p < 0.05), whereas all the sensory parameters decreased significantly (p < 0.05) with increasing days of storage. The products were successfully stored for 10 days under refrigerated conditions (4 ± 1°C) without marked loss in quality. Originality/value – The paper has demonstrated the potential of sorghum as a fibre source in the development of designer chevon cutlets and effect of clove oil on the storage quality of aerobically packaged chevon cutlets.

Abstract:
Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are important biogenic green house gases (GHGSs) from agricultural sector contributing to global warming. Temperature and rainfall play an important role in GHGS fluxes and information on their role in rainfed crops and systems is very scanty. Field studies were conducted at Hyderabad, India during 2012 rainy season to quantify GHGSs fluxes from two important food crops grown widely in rainfed regions viz. sorghum and pigeonpea. Quantum of fluxes ranged from 26 - 85 mg CO2 - C m-2 h-1 in case of CO2 and 18 – 68 μg N2O-N m-2 h-1 in case of N2O at different stages of crop growth. Cumulative seasonal fluxes are 1.18 and 1.24 Mg CO2-C ha-1 and 0.78 and 0.94 kg N2O-N ha-1, in sorghum and pigeonpea, respectively. Ambient temperature and rainfall significantly influenced CO2 fluxes. CO2 fluxes increased with increase in temperature from 25.9 °C to 31 °C and fluxes were highest at 28.4 °C in pigeonpea and at 27.7 °C in sorghum. Quantum of CO2 fluxes were highest at grain filling stage in sorghum and grand growth period in pigeonpea. N2O fluxes increased with increase in temperature and moisture availability. These results provide evidence that rainfed crops in semi-arid regions contribute significant CO2 and N2O fluxes which are influenced by temperature and rainfall, thus warrant further studies.

Abstract:
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolour (L.) Moench), the most important cereal crop in Eritrea, is grown in more than 210,000 ha annually but its productivity is hampered by many factors including: farmer perception, lack of appropriate varieties, undeveloped seed systems, drought stress and Striga infestation. This study was aimed at understanding the sorghum smallholder livelihoods, farming systems, Striga incidence and infestation levels, and types of varieties grown in Striga infested sorghum growing areas. A semi structured questionnaire and focused group discussions were used to gather information from a total of 136 randomly selected farmers from three Striga endemic sub-regions of Eritrea namely, Hamelmalo, Goluj, and Tesseney. The results indicated that the most important cereal crops in the study area were sorghum, pear millet, ground nut and sesame. The most important constraint to sorghum production was identified as drought stress followed by Striga infestation. The majority of the respondents (81.6%) reported that their sorghum was affected by Striga and the level of infestation varied from mild (10%) to severe (70% and above). Small-holder farmers also indicated that high grain yield, drought tolerance/resistance and Striga resistance were their most important criteria when selecting sorghum varieties. Up to 31 different landraces were listed as the most popular in the study area. The dominant source of seed for cultivation was the local varieties retained by farmers from previous harvests. The information documented from this study may be used in future as a basis for a participatory farmer-oriented sorghum breeding program.

Abstract:
Pathogenicity of P. terrestris was determined by the Knop?s medium slants method in test tubes. Isolates originated from the roots of maize (Zea mays L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), Johnson grass (Sorghum halepense Pers.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolour (L.) Moench.), garlic (Allium sativum L.), onion (Allium cepa L.), barnyard millet (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P.Beauv.) and green foxtail (Setaria viridis (L.) P.B.). A fragment of a fungal colony, cultivated on PDA, was placed on the bottom of Knop?s medium slant in each test tube and then sterilised a maize seed was placed 2 cm away from the inoculum. After 21-day inoculation of seeds, the intensity of the development of symptoms on maize seedlings was estimated. The reddish or dark pigment on the root, mesocotyl and/or coleoptyl of seedlings was an indicator for the infection by the fungus under in vitro conditions. Based on the pathogenicity test, the isolates were classified into the following three groups: slightly (3 isolates), moderately (6 isolates) and very pathogenic (6 isolates) to maize seedlings. The obtained results show that P. terrestris, originating from different hosts, can be a maize pathogen. These results can explain the high frequency and high incidence of this fungus on maize roots in Serbia.

Abstract:
Lipid (oil and fat) is one of the basic and important components used in the production of cookies. It plays several roles in their composition and a judicious choice of this ingredient makes it possible to have cheap, delicious and very nutritious cookies. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of refined cottonseeds oil (RCO), refined palm oil (RPO) and red (or crude) palm oil (CPO) on sorghum (Sorghum bicolour var. Gampela) cookies. Oils were incorporated at levels of 16%, 20% and 24%. Cookies quality were evaluated based on quantitative sensory profile, sensory acceptability, preference classification and paired-comparison test. The results of sensory profile tests showed that the sensory descriptors ranged from very low to medium intensity (1.33 to 3.83 on a scale of 5). Both acceptability and classification tests showed that cookies produced with 20% of refined oil (RCO and RPO) and those with 16% of CPO were the most preferred and RCO and RPO with 20% of the oil were appreciated as control cookies produced with 20% of margarine. The colour, texture and fat impression had most influenced the consumers’ preferences. RCO, RPO and CPO exhibit the potential to be used as substitutes to margarine to produce sorghum cookies.

Abstract:
In this study, we investigated the population growth of the Liposcelis yunnaniensis (Psocoptera: Liposcelididae) feeding on ten different diets. Out of the ten diets, eight were made of plain cereals namely wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.), corn ( Zea mays L.), barley ( Hordeum vulgar L.), oats ( Avena sativa L.), rice ( Oryza sative L.), and sorghum ( Sorghum bicolour L.) while two were the artificial diets named Nayak wheat diet and Universal diet. The population growth was recorded as corn > wheat > universal diet > hulled barley > rice (hulls intact) > barley (hulls intact) > sorghum > Nayak wheat diet > oats > hulled rice. After 32 d culture, the initial 5 psocids developed to the populations as 41.8 ± 4.26, 41.5 ± 4.09 and 39.1 ± 7.64 on corn, wheat and universal diet, respectively. Meanwhile, psocids feeding on Nayak wheat diet, oats and hulled rice had significantly lower populations with 25.6 ± 2.42, 22.5 ± 3.09 and 13.6 ± 2.36 respectively. Rice and barley were included in the diets with and without hulls to see their effect on population growth. In case of barley, hulls had no significant effect on population growth while rice with hulls had significantly higher populations than rice alone. This study has confirmed the relative level of suitability of different cereals for this species when damaged. We have described a method to get the uniform age adults that can be helpful in research experiments.

Abstract:
The use of herbicides for sowing grain cultures, including grain sorghum, is an integral condition for high yield indicators. However, upon penetrating into plant organisms, herbicides can intensify synthesis of the reactive oxygen species, which leads to the aggravation of lipid peroxidation and activates antioxidant systems, namely superoxide dismutase enzyme. It is known that phytohormones and microbial preparations, if included in the cultivation technology, can improve plants’ ability to resist oxidative stress caused by xenobiotics. However, the integrative influence of herbicides, phytohormones, and microbial preparations on activity of superoxide dismutase enzyme as well as on lipid peroxidation intensity in plants of grain sorghum is understudied, which preconditioned the purpose of this study. The objects of this study were as follows: grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolour (L.) Moench) of the Milo W hybrid, herbicide Cytadel 25 OD, phytohormone Endofit L1 and biopreparation Bioarsenal. The study was conducted following the requirements of vegetation method. The activity of lipid peroxidation was investigated according to the number of malondialdehyde formed in the plant tissues. The activity of superoxide dismutase enzyme (EC 1.15.1.1) was investigated according to its ability to compete with nitro blue tetrazolium for superoxide anions resulting from interaction between the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate and phenazine methosulfate. The study revealed that under the effect of the herbicide Cytadel 25 OD, indicators of the lipid peroxidation activity in plants averaged 26.2-93.2% higher than in control sample, depending on the herbicide rate and the day after application. Activity of superoxide dismutase in these conditions exceeded that in the control sample by 18.2-96.8% on average. However, provided the joint use of herbicides, phytohormones, and biopreparation, the plants demonstrated a decrease of the lipid peroxidation activity. It lowered by 14.5-19.1% against the background of superoxide dismutase increase by 22.0-38.7% relatively to the variants where only herbicide was used. Results of the experiment attest the positive influence of the phytohormone and biopreparation on the grain sorghum’s resistance to the oxidative stress caused by herbicides. The observed data can become a cornerstone for the further development of biologised cultivation technologies of this culture

Abstract:
SUMMARYThe screening of rhizobacteria for growth promotion of sorghum (Sorghum bicolour(L.) Moench) was conducted under greenhouse conditions for a total of 78 bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of sorghum in Ethiopia, and 86 isolates from the rhizosphere and rhizoplane of grasses in South Africa. Three isolates from Ethiopia, all identified asBacillus cereus, enhanced growth promotion by resulting in statistically significant increases in at least five parameters. Of these,B. cereus(KBE7-8) resulted in significant increase in shoot and root biomass. Among effective isolates from South Africa,B. cereus(NAS4-3) andStenotrophomonas maltophilia(KBS9-B) showed significant increases in all the parameters measured. The isolates which resulted in significant growth promotion colonized the roots effectively with a count up to ⩾108cfu/g. In the study conducted to elucidate the possible modes of action by these effective isolates, indole 3-acetic acid-like substances were detected in culture filtrates of the isolates ranging from 4·2 μg/ml bySerratia marcescens(KBS9-R) to 22·8 μg/ml byB. cereus(KBS5-H) in the presence of 2 mg tryptophan/g nutrient broth solution. Higher rates of solubilization of tricalcium phosphate on Pikovskaya agar medium were shown byChryseomonas luteola(KBS5-F),S. marcescens(KBS6-H) andB. cereus(KBE9-1). There is very limited knowledge of the use of rhizobacteria in agriculture in Ethiopia and South Africa. The current study therefore generates valuable information towards application of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria as alternatives to chemical fertilizers.

Abstract:
Hydrocarbon contaminants have become a global concern due to their long-term adverse effects on soil ecosystems and human health. Successful implementation of phytoremediation to clean up hydrocarbon contaminants requires the identification of the most effective remediation plant species. Twelve native plant species of the Sudd Wetland in South Sudan were evaluated for their potential application as phytoremediators. The treatments included six total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) concentrations of 0, 25, 50, 75, 100 and 125 g/kg soil. The twelve native plant species tested were: Sorghum arundinaceum Desv., Oryza longistaminata A. Chev. &amp; Roehrich, Hyparrhenia rufa Nees, Abelmoschus ficulneus L., Gossypium barbadense L., Nicotiana tabacum L., Sorghum bicolour L. Moench, Eleusine coracana Gaertn., Capsicum frutescens L., Zea mays L., Tithonia diversifolia Hemsl. and Medicago sativa L. Significant differences in phytoremediation rates were observed amongst the treatments with exception of the 125 g/kg soil concentration of hydrocarbon that was lethal to all the plant species. Over 50% TPH reduction in the 75 g/kg soil concentration was observed in contaminated soil phytoremediation in H. rufa, G. barbadense, O. longistaminata, T. diversifolia and S. arundinaceum, making them potential phytoremediators of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil in the Sudd-Wetland of South-Sudan.

Abstract:
Climate change has wide-reaching consequences for agriculture by altering both the yield and nutritional composition of grains. This poses a significant challenge for the poultry industry which relies on large quantities of high-quality feed grains to support meat and egg production. The existing literature shows that elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations (eCO2), heat and drought overall reduce grain yield and quality. However, these results are inconsistent, with some studies reporting small or large decreases and others even indicating potential improvements. These variations may occur because many studies only investigate one climate factor at a time, without considering interactions between factors. Additionally, most studies investigate just one grain type, rather than comparing grains and their morphophysiological differences. The present review offers a novel approach by investigating how eCO2, heat and drought interactively affect both the yield and nutritional composition of four key animal feed grains: wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), maize (Zea mays L.) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolour L. Moench). The photosynthetic pathway is a key determinant of a plant’s response to climate factors, so this review compares grains with both C3 photosynthesis (wheat and barley) and C4 photosynthesis (maize and sorghum). The present review found that eCO2 may promote starch synthesis in C3 grains of wheat and barley, thereby improving grain yield but diluting protein, lipid, vitamin and mineral concentrations. This potential yield improvement is further counteracted by heat and drought which limit the photosynthetic rate. Unlike wheat and barley, C4 photosynthesis is not CO2-limited, so neither the yield nor the nutritional quality of maize and sorghum are significantly affected by eCO2. On the other hand, heat stress and drought reduce photosynthesis in maize and sorghum and may offer minimal increases in nutrient concentrations. This review highlights that while eCO2 may increase the yield of wheat and barley grains, this effect (i) dilutes nutrient concentration, (ii) is counteracted by heat and drought, and (iii) does not benefit C4 grains maize and sorghum. An additional novel insight is offered by discussing how the impacts of climate change on animal feed production may be mitigated using alternative crop management practices, plant breeding, feed processing and enzyme supplementation.

Abstract:
An improvement in millet processing technology to provide millet based convenience food would help in increasing millet production, scope for millet utilization on industrial scale, maintain ecological balance, prevent malnutrition and ensure food security. Considering this, the study was designed to develop Ready-to-Eat rusk using millet flour. Composite Millet Flour (CMF) prepared using equal quantities of sorghum (Sorghum bicolour L. Moench), pearl millet (Pennisetum typhoides) and foxtail millet (Setaria italica) was substituted in refined flour at different levels (25, 50, 75 and 100 %) to develop rusk. The formulated rusk was assessed for its sensory acceptability, physico-chemical properties, nutrient content and storage stability. Of the different formulations, variation I with 25 per cent composite millet flour substitution recorded the highest mean sensory scores with 8.75 ± 0.46. The moisture, ash and acid insoluble ash content of the rusk (CMF – 25 %) were found to be 4.92, 1.22 and 0.05 % respectively. 100g of the CMF substituted rusk (25%) provided appreciable quantities of carbohydrates, protein, vitamin B1, B9, calcium and 354 kcals of energy. On storage (90 days), the moisture content ( 5.78 %) and the total plate count (<100 cfu/g) of the selected variation were within the FSSAI limits (<105) and it was organoleptically well acceptable. Utilization of composite millet flour for the development of Ready-to-Eat products like rusk would enhance the marketability of millets and improve the therapeutic value of formulated food products.

Abstract:
Suspicions that soluble aluminium (Al) is detrimental to plant growth were reported more than 100 years ago. The rhizotoxicity of Al3+ is now accepted as the major limitation to plant production on acidic soils. Plants differ in their susceptibility to Al3+ toxicity and significant variation can occur within species, even in some major crops. The physiology of Al3+ resistance in some species has been understood for 15 years but the molecular biology has been elucidated only recently. The first gene controlling Al3+ resistance was cloned from wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in 2004 but others have now been identified in Arabidopsis, barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), rye (Secale cereale L.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolour (L.) Moench) and rice (Oryza sativa L.) with strong additional candidates in wheat and oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). These genes confer resistance in different ways, but one mechanism occurs in nearly all species examined so far. This mechanism relies on the release of organic anions from roots which bind with the harmful Al3+ cations in the apoplast and detoxify them. The genes controlling this response come from at least two distinct families, suggesting that convergent evolution has occurred. We discuss the processes driving this convergence of protein function and offer opinions for why organic anions are central to the mechanisms of resistance in disparate species. We propose that mutations which modify protein expression or their activation by Al3+ have played important roles in co-opting different transport proteins from other functions.
