However, the bloomless mutant, which has reduced levels of epicuticular wax, is not a preferred host of greenbug (Schizaphis graminum) and is resistant to sheath blight (Rhizoctonia solani Kuehn) (Kasuga et al. 2001). As greenbug and sheath blight cause serious yield losses, the bloomless phenotype is a useful trait for agricultural crops in the temperate zone and in relatively humid areas. Here, we used gamma irradiation to generate a bloomless (bm) sorghum mutant with normal growth but reduced epicuticular wax content. To directly identify the gene responsible for the phenotype, we applied massive parallel sequencing of RNA and compared expressed genes between the wild type and the bm mutant.ENASudangrasses, broomcorn, sorghum, Kaffir Corn, Johnsongrasses, Sorghum bicolors, Corns, Andropogon sorghum, Sorghum bicolor subsp. bicolor, Sorghum bicolor, RNA-seq, bicolors, Kafir, Sudangrass, Kaffir, Sorghums, Johnsongrass, halepenses, Hemisorghum, Sorghum vulgare, Sorghum bicolor milo, Corn, Sorghum, milo, Kaffir Corns, Whole Transcriptome Shotgun Sequencing, Sorghum halepenses, Sorghum saccharatum, Sorghum nervosum, Kafirs, Sorghum halepense.Andropogon sorghum, strain, broomcorn, Sorghum bicolor subsp. bicolor, Sorghum vulgare, sorghum, cultivar, Sorghum saccharatum, Sorghum nervosum, Sorghum bicolor milo, ecotype., milo0.00.00.00.00.00falseSorghum bicolor strain:italianRNA-seq in bloomless sorghum2022-05-122014-04-28PRJDB6864558
