Main conclusion

The article highlights omics-based interventions in sorghum to combat food and nutritional scarcity in the future.

Abstract

Sorghum with its unique ability to thrive in adverse conditions, has become a tremendous highly nutritive, and multipurpose cereal crop. It is resistant to various types of climatic stressors which will pave its way to a future food crop. Multi-omics refers to the comprehensive study of an organism at multiple molecular levels, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. Genomic studies have provided insights into the genetic diversity of sorghum and led to the development of genetically improved sorghum. Transcriptomics involves analysing the gene expression patterns in sorghum under various conditions. This knowledge is vital for developing crop varieties with enhanced stress tolerance. Proteomics enables the identification and quantification of the proteins present in sorghum. This approach helps in understanding the functional roles of specific proteins in response to stress and provides insights into metabolic pathways that contribute to resilience and grain production. Metabolomics studies the small molecules, or metabolites, produced by sorghum, provides information about the metabolic pathways that are activated or modified in response to environmental stress. This knowledge can be used to engineer sorghum varieties with improved metabolic efficiency, ultimately leading to better crop yields. In this review, we have focused on various multi-omics approaches, gene expression analysis, and different pathways for the improvement of Sorghum. Applying omics approaches to sorghum research allows for a holistic understanding of its genome function. This knowledge is invaluable for addressing challenges such as climate change, resource limitations, and the need for sustainable agriculture.

基于多组学干预措施的功能洞察，以提高高粱（高粱）的气候适应能力：一种营养丰富的谷类作物

主要结论

该文章强调了基于组学的高粱干预措施，以应对未来的粮食和营养短缺。

抽象的

高粱以其在不利条件下茁壮成长的独特能力，已成为一种巨大的高营养、多用途谷类作物。它能够抵抗各种类型的气候压力，这将为未来的粮食作物铺平道路。多组学是指在多个分子水平上对生物体进行综合研究，包括基因组学、转录组学、蛋白质组学和代谢组学。基因组研究为了解高粱的遗传多样性提供了见解，并促进了遗传改良高粱的开发。转录组学涉及分析高粱在各种条件下的基因表达模式。这些知识对于开发具有增强抗逆性的作物品种至关重要。蛋白质组学能够对高粱中存在的蛋白质进行鉴定和定量。这种方法有助于了解特定蛋白质在应对压力时的功能作用，并提供对有助于恢复力和谷物生产的代谢途径的见解。代谢组学研究高粱产生的小分子或代谢物，提供有关响应环境压力而激活或修改的代谢途径的信息。这些知识可用于设计具有更高代谢效率的高粱品种，最终提高作物产量。在这篇综述中，我们重点关注了各种多组学方法、基因表达分析以及改良高粱的不同途径。将组学方法应用于高粱研究可以全面了解其基因组功能。这些知识对于应对气候变化、资源限制和可持续农业需求等挑战非常宝贵。
