This book provides insights into the current state of sorghum
genomics. It particularly focuses on the tools and strategies
employed in genome sequencing and analysis, public and private
genomic resources and how all this information is leading to direct
outcomes for plant breeders. The advent of affordable whole genome
sequencing in combination with existing cereal functional genomics
data has enabled the leveraging of the significant novel diversity
available in sorghum, the genome of which was fully sequenced in
2009, providing an unmatched resource for the genetic improvement
of sorghum and other grass species. Cultivated grain sorghum is a
food and feed cereal crop adapted to hot and dry climates, and is a
staple for 500 million of the world's poorest people. Globally,
sorghum is also an important source of animal feed and forage, an
emerging biofuel crop and model for C4 grasses, particularly
genetically complex sugarcane.
