(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The effects of the grass-specific herbicide haloxyfop {2- [4- [[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl]oxy]-phenoxy]propanoic acid} on the growth and ultrastructure of susceptible sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.) ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)Photoperiods of 8, 10, 12 and 14 h and temperature cycles out of phase with the photoperiod were used to study floral initiation in 11 genotypes of milo group of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench. Peroxidases were studied in ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The chloroacetamide herbicides are effective in controlling many grassy weeds. The commonly used chloroacetamide herbicides are alachlor [2-chloro-N-(2,6-diethylphenyl)-N-(methoxymethyl)acetamide] and metolachlor ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)The efficacy of greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), natural enemies was determined in grain sorghum using mechanical exclusion techniques and paired comparison experimental approaches. Indirect methods of evaluation ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the rhizosphere of cereal grasses may reduce the fertilizer nitrogen requirements of grass crops by providing them with fixed nitrogen. This study evaluated the effects of oxygen partial pressure, ...
-
(2019-06-04)Epicuticular waxes are hypothesized to enable plants to cope with drought. There is evidence that waxes alter the energy balance of plants through increase in reflectivity of solar radiation and through decrease in conductance ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Sorghum ergot, caused by Claviceps africana Frederickson, Mantle & de Milliano, is a disease that affects non-fertilized ovaries in sorghum male-sterile plants and infects hybrids if there is pollen sterility at flowering ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench) is fifth among the major cereal crops in the world in terms of production area and total production. Grain sorghum can be successfully produced in a wide range of environments, its ...
-
(2016-02-04)Stay-green is an important agronomic trait in grain sorghum that produces higher, and more stable grain yields under drought stress post-anthesis. Historically, stay-green has been evaluated and selected for visually in ...
-
(2018-01-11)Sorghum bicolor (L.) is an ancient grain and forage crop, grown from the tropics to temperate regions of the world. It is a self-pollinated species that can be grown as either a pure line cultivar or hybrid, depending on ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)The effect of parboiling on milling yield, cooking quality, sensory properties and structure of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) was examined. Cultivars differing widely in kernel characteristics were: (1) soaked ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of genotype mixtures on the development of sorghum leaf blight caused by Exserohilum turcicum. For the field experiments, three locations of Central ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2007-04-25)Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] production in Africa is widespread with low yields due to low inputs and the lack of sorghum hybrids. This situation has forced most of these farmers to grow maize hybrids since they ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)Dorado, Malisor 84-7, Tortillero, ATx623*SC103-12E, and ATx630*R3338 sorghums were cleaned, steeped in tap water for 20h, immersed in a 2% sodium hypochlorite solution for 10 min, rinsed with distilled water 5 times, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)Seed treatments using cyometrinil, oxabetrinil, and flurazole have effectively safened grain sorghum against chloroacetamide herbicides such as alachlor and metolachlor at rates of 2.24 or 3.36 kg/ha under field and ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)The effect of soil moisture, soil temperature and soil pH on sorghum downy mildew (SDM) disease incidence (DI) was evaluated. In the field, when sorghum and maize hosts were planted at different dates during the cropping ...
-
(2009-05-15)A wide variety of sorghum genotypes with a pigmented pericarp were grown in varying environments and were analyzed for total phenols, condensed tannins, flavan-4-ols, and in vitro antioxidant activity. In addition, sorghum ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1974)Interest in the three-phase relative permeability-saturation relation for porous media has been nearly dormant from the time Leverett and Lewis published their classic work in 1941. The advent of novel recovery methods ...
-
(2012-10-19)Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench) is the world's fifth most economically important cereal crop, grown worldwide as a source of food for both humans and livestock. Sorghum is a C4 grass that is well adapted to hot and ...
