This book was released on 2016 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is an important dryland crop in the Texas Panhandle. Productivity of grain sorghum depends on climatic conditions, plant available soil water, and soil fertility. Previous research has shown growing grain sorghum in clumps instead of Equal Spaced Planting (ESP) reduced plant stress, reduced production of tillers, and increased harvest index and grain yield under dryland conditions. The current study was conducted in the greenhouse and field to investigate the effect of fertilizer application on sorghum plants grown in clump and ESP geometries. The objectives of the research were to (a) compare fertilizer (nitrogen and phosphorus) uptake in grain sorghum plants in clumps and ESP geometries (b) observe root growth patterns in clump and ESP plants (c) and determine the fertilizer effect on tiller formation and harvest index. The greenhouse experiment was conducted at West Texas A&M University during 2014 and 2015. Grain sorghum was grown in clump and ESP geometries with two and three fertilizer levels in 2014 and 2015, respectively. Plants were grown in wooden boxes, with a transparent side, covered by a removable wooden board, so that root growth could be observed. All experiments were conducted in a Randomized complete block design (RCBD) and fertilizer was applied in a band beneath clump and ESP plants. The field experiment was conducted at the USDA Conservation and Production Research Laboratory at Bushland, Texas, during 2014 and 2015. Grain sorghum was grown in clump and ESP planting geometries in unfertilized and fertilized (68 kg N ha-1 and 10 kg P ha-1) plots. Planting density in both geometries was 62,000 plants ha-1. In 2015 corn was grown in clump and ESP planting geometries without using fertilizer. N and P concentrations in grain and stover were obtained from laboratory analysis and data are reported as N uptake in aboveground biomass and P uptake in aboveground biomass In the 2014 greenhouse study, ESP plants had significantly higher N uptake in aboveground biomass, stover yield, and tillers per plant. However, harvest index was higher in clumps. The interaction between planting geometry and fertilizer showed a significantly higher N uptake in ESP with high fertilizer level. In 2015, clump plants had significantly higher grain yield, aboveground N uptake, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and phosphorus use efficiency (PUE). Increasing fertilizer level increased P uptake in aboveground biomass. Plants in ESP produced deeper and well developed root systems while clump plants produced roots that developed angularly and then downward. In the 2014 field study, clump plants had lower N and P uptake in aboveground biomass than ESP, but had higher NUE and PUE. Though clump plants had significantly fewer tillers per plant than ESPs, harvest index was not different. In the 2015 field study, planting geometry did not have a significant effect on N and P uptake in aboveground biomass, NUE or PUE. However, the interaction between planting geometry and fertilizer level showed higher N uptake in clump fertilized plants. Clump plants produced fewer tillers per plant. Harvest index was significantly higher in clumps. Fertilized plots had significantly higher N uptake in aboveground biomass but fertilizer had no effect on P uptake. Overall, data suggest N and P uptake in aboveground biomass varies by soil nutrient condition, and level of fertilizer. Increasing fertilizer level increases tiller production in the plants. Application of fertilizer has shown mixed results on N uptake and grain yield in clump and ESP plants. Further investigation is necessary to draw a conclusion on aboveground N and P uptake in plants grown in clump and ESP planting geometries at different fertilizer rates and placement methods.
Book Synopsis Effect of Planting Geometry, Hybrid Maturity, and Population Density on Yield and Yield Components in Sorghum by : Kalaiyarasi Pidaran

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior studies indicate clumped planting can increase grain sorghum yield up to 45% under water deficit conditions by reducing tiller number, increasing radiation use efficiency, and preserving soil water for grain fill. The objective of this study was to evaluate effects of planting geometry on sorghum grain yield. The field study was conducted in seven environments with two sorghum hybrids, four populations, and two planting geometries. Crop responses included leaf area index, yield, and components of yield. Delayed planting decreased yield by 39%, and a later maturing hybrid increased yield, relative to an early hybrid, by 11% under water sufficiency. Clumped planting increased the fraction of fertile culms (culms which formed panicles) from 5-14%. It reduced the number of culms m−2 by 12% under water limiting conditions (at one of two locations) but increased culms m−2 16% under water sufficiency. Seeds per panicle and seed weight generally compensated for differences in panicles m−2, which were related to different planting population densities. Although agronomic characteristics of hybrids varying in maturity have been widely studied, little information exists concerning their physiological differences. Therefore, the objective of the greenhouse study was to determine if stomatal resistance, leaf temperature, and leaf chlorophyll content differed between two DeKalb grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] hybrids. They were DKS 36-16 and DKS 44-20, of medium-early and medium maturity, respectively, when grown under field conditions in Kansas. Seeds were planted in a greenhouse. Stomatal resistance and leaf temperature were measured 55 days after planting with a Decagon Devices (Pullman, WA) diffusion porometer, and chlorophyll content was measured 119 days after planting with a Konica Minolta (Osaka, Japan) SPAD chlorophyll meter. The two hybrids did not differ in stomatal resistance, leaf temperature, chlorophyll content, height, and dry weight. Their difference in maturity was not evident under the greenhouse conditions. Future work needs to show if hybrids of different maturities vary in physiological characteristics.

This book was released on 1971 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hybrid grain sorghum seeds were aged artifically for 0, 3, 5, 7, and 11 days at 42oC and 100% RH, wich produced high, medium, low and lowest vigor level. Among the various laboratory tests performed, standard germination and field mergence, were the least sensitive in discerning the physiological condition of the seed lots. The speed of germination more accurately differentiated the degree of deterioration of the seed lots and was closety correlated to yield. Adverse effect of planting low vigor seeds was found to be related to plant height, panicle exsertion, anthesis, tillering capacity, length of the panicle, and yield. Less vigours seeds produced plants which were not able to "catch up" to the vigorous ones. These slow growing plants were significantly inferior in panicle exsertion to those produced from more vigorous seeds. Seeds aged for 7 and 11 days had their process of exsertion delayed for about 2 and 3 days, respectively. Anthesis, conseguently, was also significantly retarded. Tillering capacity of plants produced from low vigor seeds was significantly reduced, as well as grain yield. Primary head yield was also significantly reduced about 14% for the more deteriorated seeds, and 12% for the mixed treatment, as compared to the control. Yield reductions of 9, 4, and 3% were also detected in seeds aged for 7, 5, and 3 days, respectively, as compared to the check. Seed moisture content generally increases as the vigor level decreased, indicating that the process of maturation was delayed as a (...).
