Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Sorghum is the key grain for brewing distilled liquors. Grain composition, particularly tannin and starch levels, is closely linked to the sensory characteristics and yield of the final product. Developing elite sorghum cultivars with suitable tannin and elevated starch content is thus essential for producing liquors with diverse and distinct aroma profiles. Investigating the natural variations of...
