Chromatic, Phenolic and Antioxidant Properties of <i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>Sorghum bicolor</i> Genotypes

Abstract: Chromatic, phenolic and antioxidant properties were evaluated in ten sorghum genotypes grown in Nuevo León, México. Lightness, Chroma and hue angle ranged from 64 to 83, 12 to 20 and 61 to 82 respectively, indicating that colour of the samples were located in the gray orange-yellow zone of the hue circle. Based on these results, samples were classified in three colour groups being Very Soft Orange, Slightly Desaturated Orange and Grayish Orange. Results in phenolics ranged from 796 to 15,949, 175 to 12,674 and… Show more

“…Although the antioxidant traits evaluated in this study exhibited a high value of broad-sense heritability, Genomic selection can nonetheless be recommended for antioxidant breeding in sorghum for several reasons. First, the use of grain color as a proxy to antioxidant concentration is complicated by the necessity of having a variety of information including pericarp thickness, pigmented testa, spreader genes and endosperm appearance, which are naturally correlated with the production of sorghums with increased phenols and antioxidant activity levels [57,58]. Second, there are many other compounds in sorghum grain that contribute to antioxidant activity, including vitamin E and carotenoids, most of which are hard to measure or are associated with minor effects QTLs that cannot be detected for use in marker assisted selection [7].…”
