Drought-induced cyanogenesis in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.): Genotypic variation in dhurrin biosynthesis and stress response
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/175549
Abstract
The accumulation of the livestock-harming cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin in the vegetative tissues limits the use of sorghum as a major pasture crop. This study integrates transcriptomics and metabolomics data from the ICSV 93046, CSH 24-MF and ICSR 14001 genotypes, which differ in drought tolerance and cyanide potential (HCNp), to understand the molecular processes…
