About 30 species, see text For more specific details on commercially exploited Sorghum see commercial sorghum. Numerous Sorghum species are used for food (as grain and in sorghum syrup or "sorghum molasses"), fodder, the production of alcoholic beverages, as well as biofuels. Most species are drought tolerant and heat tolerant and are especially important in arid regions. They form an important component of pastures in many tropical regions. Sorghum species are an important food crop in Africa, Central America, and South Asia and is the "fifth most important cereal crop grown in the world".[1] Kirsten Bomblies has investigated some of the genetic details of different crop varieties of Sorghum in various populations globally.
