Example sentences for: sorghum

How can you use “sorghum” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The content and composition of the cell wall polymer lignin is also altered in the sorghum bmr mutants [ 21 ] . The bmr6 mutation was shown to result in an accumulation of coniferaldehyde [ 22 ] and sinapaldehyde [ 23 ] and seems to be most similar to the maize bm1 mutant [ 24 ] . The bmr12 and bmr18 mutants are allelic [ 25 ] . These mutants have lignin with lower amounts of syringyl residues.

  • Therefore, the verification of this association in sorghum, when it has been demonstrated in maize, provides evidence for an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that links cell wall biogenesis with flowering time.

  • The sorghum brown midrib (bmr) mutants, generated via chemical mutagenesis with di-ethyl sulfate (DES), are similar to the bm mutants of maize in that they have brown vascular tissue in the leaves and stem.

  • The results from this study indicate that changes in cell wall biosynthesis affect flowering dynamics in sorghum.

  • In the case of sorghum, however, the bmr mutants can be compared to a line derived from a wild-type sibling, which minimizes the source of genetic variation.
