Dynamics of fermentation quality, bacterial communities, and fermentation weight loss during fermentation of sweet sorghum silage.

Background: Sweet sorghum is used mainly as an energy crop and feed crop in arid and semiarid regions, and ensiling is a satisfactory method for preserving high-quality sweet sorghum. The aim of this study was to reveal the dynamics of the fermentation quality, bacterial communities, and fermentation weight loss (FWL) of sweet sorghum silage during fermentation.

Methods: Sweet sorghum was harvested at the first inflorescence spikelet stage and ensiled without (CK) or with lactic acid bacterial (LAB) additives (L).

Cloning and Functional Study of in .

Keng is a diploid perennial grass of triticeae in gramineae. It has strong drought resistance and developed roots that can effectively fix the soil and prevent soil erosion. GDSL lipase or esterases/lipase has a variety of functions, mainly focusing on plant abiotic stress response.

Corrigendum: Integrated analysis of small RNAs, transcriptome and degradome sequencing reveal the drought stress network in Keng.

Fermentation weight loss, fermentation quality, and bacterial community of ensiling of sweet sorghum with lactic acid bacteria at different silo densities.

Sweet sorghum is an important forage in arid and semi-arid climatic regions. This study aimed to reveal the fermentation weight loss (FWL), fermentation quality, and bacterial community of ensiling of sweet sorghum with lactic acid bacteria LAB; ( and ) at different silo densities. For this study, sweet sorghum was harvested at the first spikelet of inflorescence stage and ensiled without or with LAB (CK or L) in polyethylene laboratory-scale silos (diameter, 20 cm; height, 30 cm) at densities of 650 (CK_650 and L_650), 700 (CK_700 and L_700), and 750 kg/m (CK_750 and L_750), respectively.

Integrated analysis of small RNAs, transcriptome and degradome sequencing reveal the drought stress network in Keng.

() is an excellent gramineous forage with extreme drought tolerance, which lives in arid and semiarid desert areas. However, the mechanism that underlies the response of microRNAs (miRNAs) and their targets in to drought stress is not well understood. In this study, we analyzed the transcriptome, small RNAome (specifically the miRNAome) and degradome to generate a comprehensive resource that focused on identifying key regulatory miRNA-target circuits under drought stress.
