Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.)Moench) is a starch-rich grain similar to maize (Zea mays L.), but sorghum has been underutilized for biobased products and bioenergy. This study was designed to investigate the effects of supercritical-fluid-extrusion (SCFX) of sorghum on ethanol production. Morphology, chemical composition, and thermal properties of extruded sorghum were characterized. Analysis of...

in order to investigation of morphological traits, yield and its components in three cultivars of grain sorghum (kimia, sepideh, payam) and two promising lines (m5, m2) under four density (240000, 205000, 170000 and 135000 plant/m2), experiment was conducted as factorial design based on randomized complete block design with three replications in birjand agricultural research station, during 200...

Objective: Importance of management of gardens weeds is an issue that unfortunately has less been investigated by weeds researchers of country. One of the most important restrictive agents of cultivated surface and producing crops of Citrus orchards are weeds. Methods: To achieve this purpose, a research was performed in plot of Valencia orange trees of citrus fruits of Dezful in 2013. This pro...

the effect of levels of nitrogen on growth and nitrogen uptake patterns and grain protein quality of grain sorghum was investigated by two experiments which were conducted at pakdasht-tehran in 2003. in a completely randomized design with three replications, grain sorghum (sorghum bicolor (l.) moench) hybrid h-726 was grown under greenhouse conditions using water culture technique. the first ex...

A field experiment was conducted at New Area, Department of Millets, Agricultural College and Research Institute, Tamil Nadu University, Coimbatore during Thaipattam (January-February) 2021 on sandy clay loam. Eight treatments were followed with boron nutrition. T1 : Recommended Dose Fertilizer (RDF = N, P, K, S, Zn), T2 RDF + 5 kg/ha ( Soil application), T3 2.5 (Soil application) 0.2% foliar s...

The objective of this research was to investigate physicochemical and biochemical characteristics of fieldsprouted grain sorghum and its fermentation performance in ethanol production. Five field-sprouted grain sorghum varieties, which received abnormally high rainfall during harvest, were used in this study. Enzyme activities, microstructure, flour pasting properties, kernel hardness, kernel w...

Germination and seedling growth of major cereals treated with Moringa oleifera leaf extracts was investigate at University of Zambia. Aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera at the ratio of 1:10 (w/v) were sprayed on seed of maize (Zea mays. L.), rice (Oryzae sativa.L.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor. L.) and wheat (Triticum Aestivum. L.) in a growth room at 25C for 14 days. The data were subjected to a...
