[Characterization of the biomass of the stems of sweet sorghum].
In this study the amount of glucose, sucrose and fructose was determined in the water soluble fraction while cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin and lignin contents were determined in the alcohol insoluble fraction after hydrolysis. Stalks of sweet sorghum (Sorghum vulgare L., var. saccharatum) cv. Vespa, Soave, Roce and MN 1500 at the physiological ripeness stage were used. The results of the analysis of variance with the least significant difference method (LSD, = 0.05) show that cv. Vespa and Roce have a significantly higher total amount of glucose, fructose and sucrose and at the same time, a lower cellulose, pectin, hemicellulose and lignin content then cv. Soave and cv. MN 1500.
