The Breeding Insight working group received the prestigious 2024 Agricultural Secretary’s Honor Award during the USDA’s 74th Secretary’s Honor Awards ceremony on January 10, 2025. This accolade, the highest non-monetary award bestowed by the USDA, was presented at the Thomas
A Sorghum/ Millet Workshop will be held at the Plant and Animal Genome Conference (PAG32) on Sunday, January 12 at 8 AM, in Pacific H-I (2nd Floor) at The Town & Country Resort and Conference Center, in San Diego, California.
The Maize Genetics Cooperation is hosting its 67th annual meeting from March 6th to the 9th of 2025 in St. Louis, Missouri. The meeting will include plenary talks, oral presentations, poster sessions, and opportunities for networking. The invited speakers are:
The development of pollen exine is highly conserved across Poaceae, though surface ornamentation varies among species, with the gene EPAD1 playing a key role in exine patterning in some clades but not others.
Scientists from Northwest A&F University in China studied how different concentrations of PEG affect sweet sorghum’s growth and stress response, revealing that the upregulation of genes involved in osmolyte biosynthesis, including sugars and amino acids, enhances the plant’s tolerance to water scarcity.
The review discusses the significant progress in understanding the genetic basis of sorghum’s agronomic traits, its tolerance to various stresses, and its potential for addressing food and feed security.
