英文摘要	Compared to other potential feedstocks such as sugarcane, sugar beet, maize, and watermelon, sweet sorghum possesses higher levels of directly fermentable reducing sugars within the culm and the ability to accumulate high biomass under low-input production systems. In addition, it is tolerant to drought and has more efficient utilization of solar radiation and nitrogen-based fertilizers than maize and sugar cane on marginal lands that are not optimal for food production. These collectively make sweet sorghum to be considered with huge potential as a biofuel crop. Novel phenotypes generated during plant domestication and continued crop improvements via artificial selection constitute the domestication syndrome (Am. J. Bot., 101, 2014, 1711). Here, we draw an analogy and introduce the term the biofuel syndrome to refer to a suite of sweet sorghum traits, such as plant architecture (root, leave, and stem), flowering time and maturity as well as biomass bioconversion efficiency, that are associated with biofuel production and distinguish it from grain and forage sorghum traits. We discuss the biofuel syndrome amenable for targeted genetic modulation and what is currently known about the genetics and genomics of these traits as a potential route to optimize sweet sorghum for biofuel production. Continuous availability of sweet sorghum, transport and storing much mass and minimizing the postharvest loss of fermentable sugars are fundamental to exploiting sweet sorghum as a bioenergy crop. Due to the relatively short history of sweet sorghum breeding, we consider the development of ideotypes adapting to various phenological -requirements to maximize the rapid deployment of sweet sorghum for biofuel production.
