Integrative biology and modelling of biomass sorghum growth to support its genetic analysis and ideotype conception

Title: Analyzing and modelling biomass accumulation in sorghum stem and its drought regulation at tissue and organ level – genotypic variability and implications for

The internodes analyzed for this purpose were, in 2013 and 2014: one having elongated during the stress period, i.e., at rank 2 below the last ligulated leaf phytomer at the end of

environmental heterogeneity. The extent of intra-varietal variability differs considerably between varieties for the same trait. Axis 1 was correlated with the cycle length

Allele discovery in broad based panels aiming to build a general library of genomic regions of interest was performed simultaneously with the development of

The kind of plant exchanged is not the only feature to explain the diversity of networks; preexisting social ties between partners as well as the cultural

Adapting these systems to climate change in the arid to semi-arid tropics (ASAT) would require ideotype traits that can enhance among others, plasticity of crop cyles,
