Title of Contract, Award, or Gift: Network analysis of sorghum grain development to clarify the biosynthesis of starch protein and oil
Name of Granting or Contracting Agency/Entity:
USDA-NIFA Cooperative State Research Ed & Extension Service
CFDA: 10.31
Program Title: n/a
Note:
1.1.1: The purpose of this research project is to perform the first systems study of the networks regulating the production of starch, protein, and oil in sorghum grain by dissecting endosperm and embryo development in a grain quality mapping population. The goals are to clarify the pathways related to sorghum grain starch, protein, and oil biosynthesis and to identify potential gene targets (alleles) for sorghum grain quality improvement.
