The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Shoot apical meristem: A sustainable explant for genetic transformation of cereal crops (2005, background): “Table 7 shows experiments on different explants used for genetic transformation of sorghum, including development of transgenic plants from apical shoot tip callus (Tadesse et al., 2003).”
Development and Utilization of Sorghum as a Bioenergy Crop (2008, background): “Several researchers have since reported successful sorghum transformation with the particle bombardment system coupled to a selectable marker (Zhu et al. 1998; Tadesse et al. 2003), but these systems tend to be hampered by low reproducibility and low efficiency.”
Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) using an improved in vitro regeneration system (2007, unknown): “…(Zhao et al. 2003) and the cry1Ac gene for insect resistance (Girijashankar et al. 2005) have been reported, however most recent studies (e.g. Tadesse et al. 2003; Carvalho et al. 2004; Gao et al. 2005a, b; Howe et al. 2006) focused primarily on further development and improvement of…”
