During the fall of 1992, 250 (10%) of 2,500 Rambouilet cross feeder lambs grazing Sorghum bicolor developed neurologic signs including weakness, ataxia, head shaking, knuckling of the fetlocks, inability to rise, and opisthotonos. One hundred fifteen (46%) of the affected lambs died. Twenty of the
A neurological syndrome in a herd of Friesland cows (n = 100) on a diet including sorghum beer residues is described. Over a period of 8 months, 76 cows developed weakness of the hindquarters, progressively worsening ataxia and, eventually, paralysis and permanent recumbency. The course of the
The economic damage that results from aerobic deterioration of silage is a significant problem for farm profitability and feed quality. This paper quantifies the dry matter (DM) and nutritional losses that occur during the exposure of corn and sorghum silages to air over 14 d and assesses the
The evolution of domesticated cereals was a complex interaction of shifting selection pressures and repeated episodes of introgression. Genomes of archaeological crops have the potential to reveal these dynamics without being obscured by recent breeding or introgression. We report a temporal series
OBJECTIVE
The effect of the inoculation of maize and sorghum silages with Lactobacillus plantarum (LP) and Lactobacillus buchneri (LB) on the clostridia spore formation during aerobic deterioration has been studied.
RESULTS
The crops were ensiled in 30 l jars, without a lactic acid bacteria
In sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench), the impact of heat stress during flowering on seed-set is known, but mechanisms that lead to tolerance are not known. A diverse set of sorghum genotypes was tested under controlled-environment and field conditions to ascertain the impact of heat stress on
The aim of this work was to study the effects of applying a strain of Propionibacterium acidipropionici, with or without Lactobacillus plantarum, on the fermentation and aerobic stability characteristics of low dry matter (DM) corn (Zea mays L.) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) silages. Corn at the
Peanut milk-based ready-to-use therapeutic food (P-RUTF) primarily used to treat severe acute malnutrition at community setting is expensive. We developed an alternative milk-free soybean-maize-sorghum-based RUTF (SMS-RUTF) using locally grown ingredients that have the potential to support local
ABSTRACT Sugarcane mosaic is the most widespread virus disease affecting sugarcane production. We have established a collection of seven prominent sugarcane mosaic potyvirus (SCMV) strains currently causing disease in sugarcane throughout the world and originally found in sugarcane in the United
Leaf expansion in Sorghum bicolor (Moench) was severely retarded by low night temperatures (5 C). However, this was not reflected in the early measurements of relative growth rate, indicating that the response was not associated with a deterioration of the photosynthetic system. For plants grown at
A 165 bp deletion in the middle of rpoC2, the plastid gene which encodes the RNA polymerase beta" subunit, was identified in the small-anthered types of CMS sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.). Moench, containing A1, A2, A5, and A6 cytoplasms. It was previously shown that the amino acid sequence deleted
During sorghum caryopsis development, endosperm epidermal cells near the basal main vascular bundle are specialized by depositing wall ingrowths, differentiating into basal endosperm transfer cells (BETCs). All the BETCs together compose the basal endosperm transfer layer (BETL). BETCs are the first
Diets of similar proximate analysis formulated with a base of sorghum forage and primarily supplemented with equivalent dry matter of 18.4% of aerobically digested municipal garbage (garbage diet) or 17.5% of cottonseed hulls (control diet) were ensiled for 52 days and then individually and group
We tested the hypothesis that feeding high-tannin sorghum (HTS) to steers would produce beef more resistant to oxidative deterioration. We observed lower thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) in Gluteus medius of steers fed HTS before it was displayed (P=0.028), which could be explained by
After grazing forage sorghum and grain sorghum regrowth, 54 of 330 breeding cows became ataxic and developed urinary incontinence. Three cows became recumbent, 2 of which died and the third was killed and autopsied. Wallerian degeneration of the white matter of the spinal cord, cerebellar peduncles
