Genetic differences in ethanol yield are not the result of differential particle size of sorghum near-isogenic lines. (A) After grinding, replicate samples (n = 3) were subject to analytical sieving, and fractions weighed to determine the percentage of total weight. (B) The 53 to 62.5 μm sieve fraction was tested for ethanol yield as previously described. Means ± SEM annotated with the same letter are not significantly different at P < 0.05 (Student's t-test).
