Within the project “BIOSEA” funded by Italian Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, a preliminary laboratory test was conducted to assess variability for cold tolerance during germination in 30 cultivars biomass sorghum, among fiber sweet types. Seed (%) mean time (MGT) were examined at seven constant temperatures (from 8 °C 35 °C) base temperature (Tb) thermal (?T) 50% calculated. A wide genet...

Abstract Sweet sorghum bagasse (SSB) is the dregs of sweet plant. SSB potential lignocellulosic biomass for bioethanol production. cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin content 30-40%, 20-30%, 25-30%, respectively. Previously has been used as animal feed not utilized optimally. a high cellulose. Cellulose can be hydrolyzed by cellulase to produce sugar. The amount sugar from cellulose hydrolysis...

The aim of this study was to determine the optimal conditions for dark fermentation using agro-industrial liquid wastewaters mixed with sweet sorghum stalks (i.e., 55% sorghum, 40% cheese whey, and 5% cow manure). Batch experiments were performed investigate effect controlled pH (5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5) on production bio-hydrogen volatile fatty acids. According obtained results, maximum hydrogen yi...

Agriculture in semiarid regions commonly face problems because of salt and availability irrigation water. Considering this, studies on cultures resistant to water stresses involving sweet sorghum are required. Therefore, the aim was evaluate growth other mechanisms tolerance salinity deficit BRS 506 sorghum. The experimental design conducted Upanema-RN, Brazil, randomized blocks, where isolated...
