Estructura del grano

La estructura del grano de sorgo tiene un rol importante en el procesamiento y características de calidad del grano. La forma, tamaño, proporción y peculiaridades del endosperma, germen y pericarpio, el color de este último y la presencia y ausencia de testa están determinadas genéticamente.

La estructura del grano de sorgo se compone de tres partes: el pericarpio o cobertura del grano, el endosperma o tejido de reserva y el embrión o futura planta (Fig. 1, A y B)
