Characterizing Selected Sorghum Grain Varieties and Evaluating the Suitability of Their Malt Extracts for Cultivating Microbial Biomass

Table 1

Physical properties of grain sorghum varieties.

Variety	%defects	%GE	TKW (g)	KL (mm)	KW (mm)	KT (mm)	Endosperm texture
SESO 1							Corneous
SESO 3							Intermediate
Epuripur							Corneous
Eyera							Floury

GE: germinative energy; TKW: thousand kernel weight; KL: kernel length; KW: kernel width; KT: kernel thickness. Values are . Mean values in the same column with same superscripts are not significantly different ().
