Seed Dormancy and Preharvest Sprouting in Quinoa (Chenopodium Quinoa Willd)
plants Review Seed Dormancy and Preharvest Sprouting in Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) Emma M. McGinty 1, Kevin M. Murphy 2 and Amber L. Hauvermale 2,* 1 The School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, P.O. Box 644236, Pullman, WA 99164, USA; [email protected] 2 Department of Crop and Soil Science, Washington State University, Pullman, WA 99164, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.:+1-509-335-3661 Abstract: Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is a culturally significant staple food source that has been grown for thousands of years in South America. Due to its natural drought and salinity tolerance, quinoa has emerged as an agronomically important crop for production in marginal soils, in highly variable climates, and as part of diverse crop rotations. Primary areas of quinoa research have focused on improving resistance to abiotic stresses and disease, improving yields, and increasing nutrition. However, an evolving issue impacting quinoa seed end-use quality is preharvest sprouting (PHS), which is when seeds with little to no dormancy experience a rain event prior to harvest and sprout on the panicle. Far less is understood about the mechanisms that regulate quinoa seed dormancy and seed viability. This review will cover topics including seed dormancy, orthodox and unorthodox dormancy programs, desiccation sensitivity, environmental and hormonal mechanisms that regulate seed dormancy, and breeding and non-breeding strategies for enhancing resistance to PHS in quinoa.

Genetic Improvement of Sorghum in the Semi-Arid Tropics
Genetic improvement of sorghum in the semi-arid tropics Belum VS Reddy, A Ashok Kumar and P Sanjana Reddy International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics Patancheru 502 324. Andhra Pradesh. India Introduction Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] – a major cereal of the world after wheat, rice, maize and barley, is a staple food for millions of the poorest and most food- insecure people in the Semi-Arid Tropics (SAT) of Africa and Asia. Being a C4 species with higher photosynthetic ability, and greater nitrogen and water-use effi ciency, sorghum is genetically suited to hot and dry agro-ecologies where it is diffi cult to grow other food crops. These are also the areas subjected to frequent droughts. In many of these agro-ecologies, sorghum is truly a dual-purpose crop; both grain and stover are highly valued products. In Africa, sorghum is predominantly grown for food purposes, while in USA, Australia, China, etc, it is grown for livestock feed and animal fodder purposes. Unlike in other parts of the world, sorghum is grown both in rainy and postrainy seasons in India. While the rainy season sorghum grain is used both for human consumption and livestock feed, postrainy season produce is used primarily for human consumption in India. Thus sorghum is the key for the sustenance of human and livestock populations in SAT areas of the world. Production constraints The yield and quality of sorghum is affected by a wide array of biotic (pests and diseases) and abiotic stresses (drought and problematic soils). These are shoot fl -

INTRODUCTION The use of “alternative grains,” also known as ancient grains, climate-smart grains, nutrigrains, or traditional grains, like sorghum and millets in modern food products, is becoming common across the world. This is taking place in order to address several socioeconomic trends, especially changing lifestyles (e.g., urbanization, working mothers, and single-parent families) and also consumer nutrition, health, and ethical concerns about obesity and type 2 diabetes, allergies, and environmental sustainability (Taylor and Awika, 2017). For example, sorghum and millets are increasingly being explored in gluten-free applications targeting consumers who suffer from celiac dis- ease and intolerances to wheat and related cereals. Another perceived advantage of sorghum and millets is their completely genetically modified organism (GMO)-free nature that can allow them to be used in specialty products such as organic foods and humanitarian aid for countries with GMO restrictions. This chapter is structured with the purpose of providing innovative -

International Sorghum and Millets Newsletter Co-publishers SICNA ICRISAT Sorghum Improvement Conference International Crops Research Institute of North America for the Semi-Arid Tropics About SICNA In 1947, sorghum breeders formed an informal working group to meet and review items of interest in sorghum breeding and genetics. This organization was named 'Sorghum Research Committee'. In the 1960s, with the advent of a number of severe disease and insect problems, special half-day sessions, particularly on diseases, became a part of the Sorghum Research Committee. In 1973, a concept was put forward that all sorghum workers, irrespective of discipline and employer, should meet twice a year to discuss mutual concerns with sorghum research and development. The Sorghum Improvement Conference of North America was that new organization, It is composed of eight disciplinary committees, dealing with genetics and breeding, pathology, entomology, chemistry and nutrition, physiology and agronomy, biotechnology, utilization and marketing, and agribusiness and commerce. SICNA meets formally once a year in conjuction with the National Grain Sorghum Producers Board. A general program of research, education, and developmental activities is prepared by the disciplinary committees. Funding is through membership participation and contributions from commercial donors. Essentially, SICNA represents the United States sorghum activities but accepts reports and encourages memberships from sorghum and millet researchers worldwide. About ICRISAT The semi-arid tropics (SAT) encompasses parts of 48 developing countries including most of India, parts of southeast Asia, a swathe across sub-Saharan Africa, much of southern and eastern Africa, and parts of Latin America. Many of these countries are among the poorest in the world. -

Physiological and genetic characterization of sorghum exposed to early season chilling and terminal heat and drought stress by Anuj Chiluwal B.S., Tribhuvan University, 2007 M.S., Fort Valley State University, 2014 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Agronomy College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2018 Abstract Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) is one of the hardiest crop to abiotic stresses compared with other grain crops. However early stage chilling, terminal heat and drought stress are three most damaging abiotic stresses that have limited sorghum productivity in the US Great plains and other locations having similar environmental conditions. Three studies were conducted with an overall goal aimed at increasing grain sorghum’s resilience to harsh climatic conditions. In the first study, four promising chilling stress tolerant sorghum advanced breeding lines, a known early stage chilling tolerant Chinese landrace (Shan Qui Red - SQR) and a susceptible US elite cultivar (RTx430) as checks were assessed for chilling tolerance during emergence and early growth under field and controlled environments. Aerial phenotyping using unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) fitted with multispectral camera was used to capture reflectance-based vegetation indices (NDVI and NDRE) in field experiments. Some advanced breeding lines with superior agronomic background also recorded significantly better emergence, seedling growth and vigor compared to SQR under chilling conditions. Aerial phenotyping indices from images taken between 30 and 60 days after emergence were consistently correlated with destructive measurements under early plantings, indicating their effectiveness in differentiating chilling responses. Second study was conducted to understand physiological mechanisms inducing heat stress resilience in sorghum during flowering.
