Carbohydrates stored in vegetative organs, particularly stems, of grasses are a very important source of energy. We examined carbohydrate accumulation in adult sorghum and maize hybrids with distinct phenology and different end uses (grain, silage, sucrose or sweetness in stalk juice, and biomass).
Sweet sorghum is tolerant to high temperature and drought and can be considered as an alternative crop to sugar beet and maize in Iran. In this study, the effects of nitrogen and potassium fertilizers on growth parameters including stem height, stem diameter, stem fresh weight, total fresh weight;
Twenty-four finishing pigs (twelve Iberian and twelve Landrace) were used in a growing and slaughtering experiment. Animals were fed two diets differing in their ingredients, maize (diet C) or sorghum-acorn (diet A). At an average weight of 107.0 kg pigs were slaughtered and hindgut digesta sampled
The carbohydrate composition and nutritional quality of acid, neutral and alkali tô, prepared from a decorticated white (DW) flour containing no polyphenols or whole grain red (WGR) flour high in polyphenols, were studied. The diets were characterized with regard to non-starch polysaccharides,
Eight cultivars Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench were grown as callus cultures under induced, prolonged water stress (8 weeks), with polyethylene glycol in the medium. Concentrations of soluble carbohydrates and organic acids in callus were measured at the end of the growth period to determine
The carbohydrate contents of sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is an important industrial factor for crystal sugar or bioethanol production. In this study the relationship between growth analysis and carbohydrate contents were studied to recognize the best growth stages for sweet sorghum
A review of literature on nonstructural and structural carbohydrate contents in sorghum is presented. This review describes the influence of temperature, maturity, genotype, culm section, spacing, and fertilization on nonstructural carbohydrate contents. The starch properties and the chief criteria
We evaluated genetic variations in the non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) and the cell-wall components of stem in rice, sorghum, and sugar cane to assess the potential suitability of these gramineous crops for bioethanol production. For NSC, the maximum soluble sugar concentration was highest in
The objectives of this work were to determine carbohydrate composition and in vitro digestibility of DM and nonstarch polysaccharides (NSP) in corn, wheat, and sorghum and coproducts from these grains. In the initial part of this work, the carbohydrate composition of 12 feed ingredients was
Among C₄ species, sorghum is known to be more drought tolerant than maize. The objective was to evaluate differences in leaf gas exchanges, carbohydrates, and two enzyme activities of these nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) C₄ subtype monocots in response to water
1. The present work was undertaken to study the effects of cooking, pH and polyphenol level on carbohydrate composition and nutritional quality of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench). Three different sorghum varieties; Dabar, Feterita and Argentine containing zero, intermediate to low and high
Untreated and hydrothermally treated sorghum bagasse (SB) was hydrolyzed to simple sugars by the synergistic action of cellulases and hemicellulases produced by the fungi Fusarium oxysporum and Neurospora crassa. Synergism between the two lignocellulolytic systems was maximized with the application
Sweet sorghum is adapted to the hot and dry climatic conditions. It can be used for different products such as food, feed, fiber and fuel. This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of four irrigation intervals and three harvesting dates on stem height, stem diameter, biomass, juice volume,
An experiment was conducted to determine the apparent ileal digestibility (AID) and the apparent total tract digestibility (ATTD) of energy, starch, and total dietary fiber (TDF) in 2 varieties of hybrid rye and compare these values with values obtained for barley, wheat, corn, and sorghum. It was
Simple sugars are the essential foundation to plant life, and thus, their production, utilization, and storage are highly regulated processes with many complex genetic controls. Despite their importance, many of the genetic and biochemical mechanisms remain unknown or uncharacterized. Sorghum, a
