Abstract:
... Interest has increased in pop sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) as an alternative to popcorn as an ingredient in snack foods and as a confectionary snack per se. However, studies on the effect of sorghum genotype, agronomic production and grain processing on popping quality are limited and this has hindered the development of sorghum hybrids specifically for popping. This study assessed the ef ...

Abstract:
... Growth in the niche market of popped grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] has increased the demand for grain sorghum lines or hybrids with improved popping quality. While there is a clear morphological difference in kernel morphology between popcorn [Zea mays L. everta] and most other types of corn, most grain sorghum genotypes have kernels with generally similar morphological structure. Th ...

A positive correlation between the volume of expansion and the thickness of the pericarp, and between the proportion of the opaque/shiny endosperm and the grain weight and volume, were postulated. However, there are no reports in the literature that address the importance of cell wall components in th ...
