AB  - Sorghum is an important crop that serve multiple purposes as human food, animal feed, and bioenergy production. There are opportunities to produce different types of biofuels from sorghum-based biomass. Sorghum with its vast genetic resources can serve as bioenergy crop and not compete against the value of it as food and nutritional security crop. Bioenegy crops provides an opportunity for agriculture to be part of solution for energy and mitigation to climate change. This review provides detailed overview and current knowledge on the conversion of sorghum biomass (stalks, leaves, and grains) into liquid (bioethanol, biodiesel, and bio-oil), gas (biohydrogen, biogas, and syngas) and solid (biochar) biofuels. Progress made in the different sorghum-based biomass pretreatment and conversion processes including chemical, biochemical, thermochemical and biological processes (e.g. saccharification, fermentation, transesterification, hydrothermal liquefaction, pyrolysis, and gasification) are highlighted and described. In addition, several value-added products from sorghum gaining importance in biofuels production are summarized. Finally, the potential outlook on sorghum based biorefiners and potential for improving sorghum-based biofuel production is presented and discussed. The biorefinery concept offers a considerable scope for optimization of sorghum biomass utilization to produce biofuels and biochemicals. However, there is further need to clearly identify the best methods of pre-treatment, processing, and products from different sources. Sorghum with its high biomass production and multiple use has the potential to be key biofuel crop. Further research is needed to identify most efficient and cost effective processes to ensure the value of biofuel and other bioproducts from sorghum. A complete lifecycle analyses indicating the challenges and opportunities to enhance the efficiency, benefits, and challenges in different steps and finding solutions to overcome those challenges will be of prime importance. Strong collaboration between private and public sector researhcers and multidisciplinary teams will be required to develop a comprehensive biorefinery models.

AB  - Weather, tillage, and fertilization are the major factors affecting the grain yield of field peas (Pisum sativum L.). However, the impact of tillage and fertilization on yield is not well understood. Therefore, this experiment was initiated in 1999. In this manuscript, we report the data recorded during the period of 2011-2015 to quantify the impacts on yield. Field peas were planted in seedbeds prepared through conventional tillage (CT)-moldboard ploughing to the depth of 0.22 m; and minimum tillage (MT)-disking to the depth of 0.12 m. The crop received three fertilization treatments, including zero fertilization (control); nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium (NPK) mineral fertilization treatment; and NPK mineral fertilization plus the incorporation of pre-crop biomass. Five years' average data indicated the highest yield on fertilized treatments (2.85-2.98 t ha(-1) vs. 2.66 t ha(-1)) regardless of the tillage. When comparing the yield of fertilized treatments, the yield under CT (2.98 t ha(-1)) was significantly higher than that of MT (2.85 t ha(-1)). However, on non-fertilized treatments (less fertile plots), a higher yield was recorded under MT (2.71 t ha(-1)) compared with CT (2.40 t ha(-1)). Overall, the results of this study suggest that fertilizer application together with incorporation of the above-ground biomass of the previous crop may help sustain pea grain yield.

AB  - BackgroundRecurrent drought associated with climate change is a major constraint to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) productivity. This study aimed to (i) quantify the effects of addition/substitution/translocation of chromosome segments from wild relatives of wheat on the root, physiological and yield traits of hexaploid wheat under drought, and (ii) understand the mechanism(s) associated with drought tolerance or susceptibility in wheat-alien chromosome lines.MethodsA set of 48 wheat-alien chromosome lines (addition/substitution/translocation lines) with Chinese Spring background were used. Seedling root traits were studied on solid agar medium. To understand the influence of drought on the root system of adult plants, these 48 lines were grown in 150-cm columns for 65 d under full irrigation or withholding water for 58 d. To quantify the effect of drought on physiological and yield traits, the 48 lines were grown in pots under full irrigation until anthesis; after that, half of the plants were drought stressed by withholding water for 16 d before recording physiological and yield-associated traits.ResultsThe alien chromosome lines exhibited altered root architecture and decreased photochemical efficiency and seed yield and its components under drought. The wheat-alien chromosome lines T5DS5S#3L (TA5088) with a chromosome segment from Aegilops speltoides (5S) and T5DL(.)5V#3S (TA5638) with a chromosome segment from Dasypyrum villosum (5V) were identified as drought tolerant, and the drought tolerance mechanism was associated with a deep, thin and profuse root system.ConclusionsThe two germplasm lines (TA5088 and TA5638) could be used in wheat breeding programs to improve drought tolerance in wheat and understand the underlying molecular genetic mechanisms of root architecture and drought tolerance.

AB  - Among the minor coarse grains cultivated in the world, barley leads the area under cultivation, followed by oats and others. This chapter discusses growth stages, climatic requirements, and management practices of oat, barley, and minor millets. Winter oat varieties take approximately 12 d from sowing to emergence, 267 d from sowing to anthesis, and 58 d from anthesis to harvest. After seed germination, shoot growth of barley is dependent on the activity of the shoot apical meristem, which produces the internode, leaf, and axillary bud. Barley can be grown as a summer or winter crop. The ideal pH for spring barley is 6.5. This ensures optimum availability of both macro- and micro-nutrients. Minor millets mature in the range of 85 to 130 d after sowing. Generally, the growth stages of millets can be classified into three distinct stages, namely vegetative, pre- and post-flowering stages.
