Abstract:
A study was conducted in the field to test whether stomatal sensitivity to water stress can be used as a selection criterion for drought tolerance in two pearl millet genotypes. In both cultivars, stomatal aperture was significantly reduced by the water stress. However, the proportion of reduction per 20 mm decrease in applied water was much higher for the hybrid than for the female parent. This is clearly an indication of a higher stomatal sensitivity in the hybrid, which probably explains the superior performance under water stress that was previously observed in this genotype.

Foram desenvolvidas funções de pedotransferência (PTF) para estimar os parâmetros (\'alfa\', n \'teta\'r e \'teta\'s) do modelo de Van Genuchten (1980) utilizado para descrever curvas de retenção de água no solo. Os dados utilizados foram provenientes de diversas fontes, principalmente de estudos realizados na região Nordeste pelas Universidades, Embrapa e Codevasf, totalizando 786 curvas de retenção, as quais foram divididas em dois conjuntos de dados: 85% para desenvolvimento das PTF; e 15% para teste e validação, considerados como dados independentes.

Abstract:
Traditionally, barley is the preferred cereal for traditional lager brewing. The use of sorghum for the production of European-style lager beers has recently been recognised. The use of sorghum as brewing adjunct could be a major socio-economic advantage in the developing countries in Africa. Limitations for its use, however, include its low amylolytic potential, high gelatinization temperatures, and the presence of tannins. Adjuncts are often combined with cereal malt during the brewing process to provide extra sources of fermentable carbohydrates. As with all cereals, the functional properti

Abstract:
Sorghum breeders have not made much yield improvement in new sorghum varieties in Kenya since Serena in was released in the late 1960s. KARI Mtama-1 which was released in 1993 has no yield advantage over Serena. A yield plateau for sorghum in Kenya is apparent. A new breeding approach was adopted to break that yield barrier. Development of hybrid sorghum was proposed and is expected to break the yield barrier and also deliver cultivars that meet farmers' main requirements. The objectives of the study were to (1) identify farmers' requirements in sorghum cultivars, constraints to sorghum produc

Abstract:
Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is one of the most important cereal crops grown in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. The North Eastern regions of Ethiopia are known for its high sorghum production and genetic diversity, and proneness to moisture stress. Globally, moisture stress is one of the major sorghum production constraints limiting genetic gain through breeding. Although, the importance of Ethiopia’s sorghum germpalsm has been widely recognized both nationally and internationally, the genetic potential of the germplasm has not yet been fully assessed and exploited in breedin

The several major cultivated regions include the North of America, Africa and South of Asia. In China, Sorghum is used to produce liquor by fermenting and distilling. After liquor processing, tremendous amount of sorghum distillery residues are remained, and applications of making great value of these byproducts have been an important issue. In this study, to confirm the skin whitening ability of sorghum distillery residues, several basic bio
