This project explores drought tolerance in sorghum, a crucial crop for food security in West Africa. It aims to identify genetic traits that confer drought resistance, focusing on vascular anatomy and its physiological impact, to support agricultural resilience.
Sorghum is a drought tolerant cereal crop, grown extensively by smallholder farmers in West Africa.
It is expected to become increasingly important to crop production in the Sahel, and grow as part of Europe’s grain portfolio as incidences of drought become more frequent.
Identifying drought tolerant varieties and what traits confer drought tolerance in sorghum is of great importance to food security both in the Sahel and across the world.
The SorghEau project will investigate drought tolerance…
