In a series of three recent studies, a team led by CSIC researcher at CRAG Ana I. Caño-Delgado has made significant progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms and improving the breeding of sorghum, the world’s fifth most cultivated cereal, which is particularly important in arid and semi-arid regions. The importance of this cereal lies in its role in the future of human and animal nutrition, providing a sustainable alternative for areas facing water scarcity.
