✍️ A team of researchers from the University of Buenos Aires, CONICET, and Advanta Semillas has identified a region of the genome linked to premature germination in sorghum, a problem that can affect up to 30% of the crop's yield.
👉 Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires, CONICET, and Advanta Semillas identified a region of the genome linked to premature germination in sorghum 👉 The discovery has the potential to reduce losses in the cultivation of sorghum 👉 The researchers found that a sector of chromosome 9 is linked to the dormancy of seeds 👉 The breakthrough could lead to the development of more tolerant and stable hybrids 👉 The discovery is expected to benefit farmers and the agricultural industry
