CABBI researcher Caitlin Moore, standing here in an Illinois sorghum field, was a lead author on a study that found annual energy sorghum behaved more like miscanthus than maize in the way it captured light and used water to produce abundant biomass. The work signals the plant's potential as a sustainable bioenergy crop.
