[PMID: 38611404 PMCID: PMC11011791 DOI: 10.3390/foods13071100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
The male sterility line is a vital approach in the genetic breeding of sorghum. The husking process affects the grain's nutritional composition, emphasizing the intricate relationship between genetic enhancement and dietary requirements. The current study assessed the influence of the Husking Fraction Time Unit (HFTU) process, which was set at 30 (S) and 80 (S) time units per second (S). The study assessed the impact of the (HFTU) process on fifty-one inbred line sorghum race varieties, which implied diverse nutritional profiles considering the pericarp color variations. The assessment of the nutritional profile involved dry matter, total protein, and minerals (P, K, S, Ca, Mg, Na, Fe, Zn, and Mn). The variety groups showed a significance value of p ≤ 0.05, indicating the study hypothesis's truth. While results demonstrated substantial impacts implied by the Husking Fraction Time Unit (HFTU) technique, the occurrence was noted when the dry matter percentage was increased in the husked products, specifically the endosperm (grits) and bran. Conversely, the protein variation percentage between the bran and endosperm (grits) for the S. bicolor race was calculated at 33.7%. In comparison, the percentage was 11.8% for the Kafirin race. The 80 (S) time unit, on the other hand, had an observable effect on the mineral reconcentration when the Kafirin race had the highest averages of K mg/kg-1, Ca mg/kg-1, and Fe mg/kg-1, which were 5700.5 mg/kg-1, 551.5 mg/kg-1 and 66.5 mg/kg-1, respectively. The results of this study could benefit breeders and nutrition specialists in developing genotypes and processing sorghum grains, promoting research, and aiding several industrial sectors owing to the grain's adaptability and nutritional properties.

Gebre W, Mekbib F, Tirfessa A, Bekele A. Genetic variability among lowland sorghum accessions collected from southern Ethiopia for grain quality traits. Heliyon 2024; 10:e25323. [PMID: 38390132 PMCID: PMC10881306 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The study was carried out to assess the nature and magnitude of genetic variability for grain quality traits in lowland sorghum accessions. Understanding genetic diversity and trait association is crucial to designing an effective breeding plan to develop nutrient-rich varieties. Two hundred twenty-five accessions were evaluated using a simple lattice design with two replications at Weioto. Prepared samples per replication were scanned by mixing the grains and repacking the sample cup after each scan. Analysis of grain quality traits revealed significant (P ≥ 0.01) differences among the genotypes indicating a good chance for genetic improvement. Genotypic means of nutritional content showed that amylose (Am) content ranged from 19.11 to 20.80%, ash value ranged from 0.37 to 3.14%, starch content ranged from 42.29 to 72.77%, and protein (pr) in dry basis ranged from 2.62 to 10.45%. Similarly, iron (Fe) ranged from 1.38 to 73.21 ppm, zinc (Zn) ranged from 16.8 to 66.02 ppm, and tannin content ranged between -0.08 and 9105.21%. Broad-sense heritability (h2b) of all grain quality attributes such as amylose; ash; starch; moisture; iron; zinc; protein, and tannin was in the range of 13-92%. Principal component analysis showed the first three principal components with an eigenvalue equal to or greater than unity adequately explain the variation in the data. Significant positive genetic correlations (P < 0.001) with amylase, starch, iron, and zinc, while tannin had a weak association with grain yield. This result declares/signifies/a good prospect of southern Ethiopia lowland sorghum accessions for genetic improvement in grain yield and quality traits.

[PMID: 38472774 DOI: 10.3390/foods13050662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/17/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
This study explored the effects of the germination of red and white sorghum grains (Sorghum bicolor [Moench (L.)]) for up to seven days on various properties of the grain. Germination enriched sorghum's nutritional and sensory qualities while mitigating existing anti-nutritional factors. The study employed Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy techniques to support its findings. Germination increased protein and lipid content but decreased starch content. White sorghum grains showed elevated calcium and magnesium but decreased iron, potassium, and zinc. Red sorghum grains showed a consistent decrease in mineral content during germination. Germination also increased fiber and lignin values in both sorghum varieties. The results of the FT-IR analysis demonstrate that germination induced significant changes in the molecular structure of white sorghum samples after 24 h, whereas this transformation was observed in red sorghum samples at four days. Total phenolic content (TPC) in red sorghum ranged from 136.64 ± 3.76 mg GAE/100 g to 379.5 ± 6.92 mg GAE/100 g. After 72 h of germination, the germinated seeds showed a threefold increase in TPC when compared to ungerminated seeds. Similarly, the TPC of white sorghum significantly increased (p < 0.05) from 52.84 ± 3.31 mg GAE/100 g to 151.76 mg GAE/100 g. Overall, during the 7-day germination period, all parameters showed an increase, and the germination process positively impacted the functional properties that contributed to the health benefits of white and red sorghum samples.

Abstract
Abstract At the global level, Sorghum bicolor (L.), is one of the most important crops, which ranks fifth among all cereals. It is cultivated in Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas, where it serves as a source of food and feed for humans and animals, respectively. However, production is constrained by several factors including pests and diseases. Among the pests that are known to attack Sorghum, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), commonly called the green cereal aphid, is the most destructive pest of sorghum. S. graminum damage to sorghum is worsen by water deficit which favors its occurrence. Limited information on the spatial distribution of the pest and its natural enemies impedes the development of ecologically friendly management strategies. Therefore, the objective of this research was to determine the spatiotemporal distribution of S. graminum and its natural enemy Coccinella septempunctata (L.) during the vegetative and reproductive stage of the crop using geostatistical analysis. The spatiotemporal distribution of S. graminum was influenced by Sorghum development stage, surrounding landscape, and presence of its main predator C. septempunctata. Moreover, the abundance of C. septempunctata was influenced by the density of S. graminum. The findings from this study are required for developing sustainable pest management strategies against S. graminum.

Adzqia F, Suwonsichon S, Thongngam M. Effects of White Sorghum Flour Levels on Physicochemical and Sensory Characteristics of Gluten-Free Bread. Foods 2023; 12:4113.

Abstract
This research studied the effects of white sorghum flour levels at 0, 10, 25, 40, 70, 85 and 100% in the matrix of rice and tapioca flours and corn starch on the properties of flour blends and the qualities of gluten-free (GF) bread. Single and composite flours were analyzed for moisture content, color and pasting properties. GF bread samples prepared from composite flours were analyzed for specific volume, moisture content, water activity, crumb color and instrumental texture. Sensory profiles of the breads were determined by nine trained descriptive panelists. The results show that increasing the sorghum flour content increased (p ≤ 0.05) color intensity, pasting temperature and setback viscosity, while it decreased (p ≤ 0.05) the peak and breakdown viscosities of flour blends. For GF bread, increasing white sorghum flour levels in the blends primarily affected specific volume, color, flavor and texture characteristics, leading to decreases (p ≤ 0.05) in specific volume, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness and moistness, but increases (p ≤ 0.05) in color intensity, brown and nutty flavors, graininess and roughness. White sorghum flour could be used in the blends at the maximum level of 25% to get a good bread volume without sacrificing texture quality.

Comprehensive evaluation of nutritional components, bioactive metabolites, and antioxidant activities in diverse sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) landraces. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113390.

Abstract
Sorghum, one of the prospective crops for addressing future food and nutrition security, has received attention in recent years due to its health-promoting compounds. It is known that several environmental and genetic factors affect the metabolite contents of dietary crops. This study investigated the diversity of different nutrients, functional metabolites, and antioxidant activity using three different assays in 53 sorghum landraces from Korea, China, Japan, Ethiopia, and South Africa. The effects of origin and seed color variations were also investigated. Total phenolic (TPC), total tannin (TTC), total fat, total protein, total dietary fiber, and total crude fiber contents all varied significantly among the sorghum landraces (p < 0.05). Using a gas chromatography-flame ionization detector, palmitic, stearic, oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids were detected in all the sorghum landraces, and their content significantly varied (p < 0.05). Furthermore, four 3-deoxyanthocyanidins (luteolinidin, apigeninidin, 5-methoxyluteolinidin, and 7-methoxyapigeninidin) and two flavonoids (luteolin and apigenin) were detected in most of the landraces using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and their concentrations also significantly varied. Statistical analyses supported by multivariate tools demonstrated that seed color variation had a significant effect on TPC, TTC, DPPH• and ABTS•+ scavenging activities, and ferric-reducing antioxidant power, with yellow landraces having the highest and white landraces having the lowest values. Seed color variation also had a significant effect on dietary fiber, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, and luteolin contents. In contrast, all nutritional components and fatty acids except total protein and oleic acid were significantly affected by origin, while most 3-deoxyanthocyanidins and flavonoids were unaffected by both origin and seed color differences. This is the first study to report the effect of origin on sorghum seed metabolites and antioxidant activities, laying the groundwork for future studies. Moreover, this study identified superior landraces that could be good sources of health-promoting metabolites.

Abstract
Heat treatment of sorghum kernels has the potential to improve their nutritional properties. The goal of this study was to assess the impact of dry heat treatment at two temperatures (121 and 140 °C) and grain fractionation, on the chemical and functional properties of red sorghum flour with three different particle sizes (small, medium, and large), for process optimization. The results showed that the treatment temperature had a positive effect on the water absorption capacity, as well as the fat, ash, moisture and carbohydrate content, whereas the opposite tendency was obtained for oil absorption capacity, swelling power, emulsion activity and protein and fiber content. Sorghum flour particle size had a positive impact on water absorption capacity, emulsion activity and protein, carbohydrate and fiber content, while oil absorption capacity, swelling power and fat, ash and moisture content were adversely affected. The optimization process showed that at the treatment temperature at 133 °C, an increase in fat, ash, fiber and carbohydrate content was experienced in the optimal fraction dimension of red sorghum grains. Moreover, the antioxidant performance showed that this fraction produced the best reducing capability when water was used as an extraction solvent. Starch digestibility revealed a 22.81% rise in resistant starch, while the thermal properties showed that gelatinization enthalpy was 1.90 times higher compared to the control sample. These findings may be helpful for researchers and the food industry in developing various functional foods or gluten-free bakery products.
