Effects of Deheading on Stalk Yield and Juice Quality of Rio Sweet Sorghum ABSTRACT The carbohydrates in the grain normally produced by sweet sorghum [Sorghum blcolor (L.) Moench.] would more valuable to a sugar producer as sugar in the juice of the plant. 甜高粱所产生的糖分对于糖商来说具有更大的价值，因为糖分就在这些植物的汁液里。 April 1, May 1, and June 1 plantings of ’Rio’ were deheaded in the boot and flower stages of head development. RIO的四月一日、五月一日和六月一日的作物在头部发展的boot和花阶段被去头。 Deheaded and normal plants were comparedw hent he normalp lants were in the milk, dough, and rip stages of grain development to determine the effect of deheadingo n stalk yield and juice quality. 我们将浸入牛奶中、面团中和抽查处于不同发展阶段的普通作物与去头作物进行比较，以此来判断去头对于作物产量和汁液质量的影响程度。 Deheaded plants were higher in Brix, sucrose, and starch, 去头作物在白利糖度、蔗糖和淀粉的含量上偏高 they contained less juice than normal plants. 但是汁液含量上却比普通作物偏少 The effects of deheading on juice extraction, Brix, sucrose, and starch were similar for the milk, dough, and ripe stages of grain development. 在提取汁液，白利糖度、蔗糖和淀粉的程度上，去头对植物所产生的作用与牛奶，面团和抽查不同阶段发展上并没有什么不同 Deheading in the boot stage resulted in a slightly greater increase in sucrose than deheading in the flower stage. 在boot阶段对植物进行去头要比开花阶段进行去头可以使植物产生多一点的蔗糖 Plants deheaded in the boot and flower stages were similar in yield of stalks, juice extraction, Brix, starch, and juice purity. 而这两种不同阶段的去头却在茎秆、汁液提取、白利糖度、淀粉和汁液纯度的产量上确实相似的。 Deheading did not affect stalk and sugar yield or juice purity. 去头并没有影响茎秆和糖产量或是汁液纯度 Deheaded plants lodged less and had more side branches than normal plants. 与一般作物相比，去头作物虫害较少，并且有更多的侧枝 THE photosynthates used in grain formation would be more profitable to sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.] growers as sugar in the juice of the plant. 在谷物形成过程中所使用的光合作用对甜高粱种植者来说要有更高的利润价值，因为糖分就在这些植物的汁液里 According to Stokes and Coleman (3), 根据Stokes 和 Coleman的理论 deficient seed production usually hastens maturity of the plant as indicated by sucrose content of the juice, does not greatly influence growth of stalks, reduces l
