Download or read book Differences in Dry Matter Yield and the Uptake, Distribution, and Use of Nitrogen by Sorghum Genotypes written by Goncalo Evangelista de Franca and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty-four sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) genotypes were screened for differential response to N by growing plants with 10 mg N/ plant in nutrient solution. The genotypes TX 3934 X GH-8-17, and SC 423 X SC 239 produced the highest amount of dry matter per unit N (H), and SC 110 X SC 120, and SC 150-6 X SC 150-9 (L) produced the low-est amount of dry matter per unit N. Because of this, these genotypes were selected for further study to identify physiological properties that may be associated with differential N nutrition. The physiological properties evaluated in these genotypes were: (1) NO3 uptake rates as affected by time (hours after being put in a new N03 solution), N03 concentration, and plant age; (2) dry matter and N accumulation with plant age;(3) N distribution among plant parts at various plant ages; (4) dry matter produced per unit N; (5) genotype responses to different N levels and N compounds. Differential responses to N were moted among the genotypes screened with low N. The ranges were 131% for dry matter yields, 75% for N contents, 59% for top N/root N ratios, and 34% for dry matter produced per unit N. After an initial slow rate of N03 uptake, N03 absorption was relatively rapid during the next four hours before leveling off or decreasing after six hours in plants 34 days of age or younger; plants older than this showed no differences in N03 uptake. Patterns of N03 uptake with time suggested that uptake was induced by N03 at low concentrations. Differences in N03 uptake rates among (...).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenes of starvation have drawn the world's attention to Africa's agricultural and environmental crisis. Some observers question whether this continent can ever hope to feed its growing population. Yet there is an overlooked food resource in sub-Saharan Africa that has vast potential: native food plants. When experts were asked to nominate African food plants for inclusion in a new book, a list of 30 species grew quickly to hundreds. All in all, Africa has more than 2,000 native grains and fruitsâ€""lost" species due for rediscovery and exploitation. This volume focuses on native cereals, including: African rice, reserved until recently as a luxury food for religious rituals. Finger millet, neglected internationally although it is a staple for millions. Fonio (acha), probably the oldest African cereal and sometimes called "hungry rice." Pearl millet, a widely used grain that still holds great untapped potential. Sorghum, with prospects for making the twenty-first century the "century of sorghum." Tef, in many ways ideal but only now enjoying budding commercial production. Other cultivated and wild grains. This readable and engaging book dispels myths, often based on Western bias, about the nutritional value, flavor, and yield of these African grains. Designed as a tool for economic development, the volume is organized with increasing levels of detail to meet the needs of both lay and professional readers. The authors present the available information on where and how each grain is grown, harvested, and processed, and they list its benefits and limitations as a food source. The authors describe "next steps" for increasing the use of each grain, outline research needs, and address issues in building commercial production. Sidebars cover such interesting points as the potential use of gene mapping and other "high-tech" agricultural techniques on these grains. This fact-filled volume will be of great interest to agricultural experts, entrepreneurs, researchers, and individuals concerned about restoring food production, environmental health, and economic opportunity in sub-Saharan Africa.

Download or read book Physiological and Agronomic Responses of a Grain Sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor (L.) Moench) Hybrid to Elevated Night Temperatures written by V. B. Ogunlela and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two greenhouse and three field experiment were conducted to study the effects of elevated night temperatures on the yield and growth of a grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) hybrid. The genotype used in these investigations was the 'RS 671' (Redlan x Tx 415), an open-pedigree temperate-adapted grain sorghum. The phenological growth phase during which temperature treatments were imposed was the panicle development (GS-2) period. Experiment I, II (greenhouse) and III (field) were designed to determine the response of grain sorghum to two elevated night temperatures and the growth stage during GS-2 period when the plant is most sensitive to elevated temperatures. Experiment IV and V (field) were conducted with the same objectives as those for Experiment I, II and III and also to determine the effects of artificial preconditioning on the plant's response to elevated night temperatures. Experiments I - Plants were exposed to 26.5 and 32 C night temperatures at 4-day durations commencing from florest differentiation through bloom. The two elevated night temperatures caused significant reduction in grain yield and yield components except seed size that was enhanced (12%) by the 32 C treatment. Approximately 19%, 21%, 24% and 20% reductions in panicle dry weight, grain yield per plant, number of seeds per panicle and grams of grain/GS-3 day/plant, respectively, were caused by the 32 C treatment. The 26,5 C treatment also caused reduction in these variables but to much lesser degrees. Numbers of days to (...).

Download or read book Grain deterioration of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench) at affected at high relative humidity at physiological maturity and pre-harvest fungicide written by M. D. Bhatt and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field experiment with ' Cosor 5' variety of sorghum was conducted in the Central Experiment Station of UPLB starting from the third week of April 1984. The crop experienced high Rh (78 average) from flowering to seed maturity. One systemic fungicide, out of four kinds, was applied to each plot two weeks before flowering, at flowering and two weeks after flowering to control fungal infection in developing seeds. Seed dry matter accumulation, moisture content, vaibility and vigor were studied at regular intervals starting two weeks after flowering. Seed health and other characteristics were assessed at harvest and the different seed lots were stored under ambient open storape for the succeeding six months to study deterioration every month through the test of germination, AAT, GADA, MC and speed of germination. During storage, germination decreased from an initial 90 percent to 73 percent. Seedsfrom plants sprayed two weeks before, followed by at flowering consistently exhibited higher viability. On the average, a 34 percent loss in viability was observed during storage period as indicated by AAT. Significantly higher germination in AAT only during the later half of thestorage period was shown by seeds obtained from plants sprayed at theearlier two stages. Benomyl and Carboxin treatments as preharvest sprays resulted in better protection from seed-borne fungi as well as in better quality seeds on viability, vigor and storage life. Seeds obtained from the firtsstage of spraying were the in over all performace followed by those from the second spraying stage. The sprays were applied only once and the results were not consistently encouraging in all aspects, thus, it is advisable to apply the systemic fungicides more thanonce. Based on the results of this experiment, the following can be recommended for farmers, seed producers and for further studies. The residual dormancy prevalent in this variety could be over-come by treating seeds at 40 C for six days. Pre-harvest fungicides suitable againstabove mentioned fungi should be applied during the stages: two weeks before flowering (at the emergence of the ear), and at flowering.
