Effect of Seed Priming on Early Development of Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) and Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth
Striga hermonthica is an obligate, root parasite, that limits cereal production in sub-Saharan Africa. Successful control depends on eliminating its seed reserves in soil, thereby preventing parasitism. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of salinity on germination traits and seedling growth of sorghum (cultivar Wad Ahmed) and S. hermonthica. The experiments were conducted in...
متن کاملInheritance of Resistance to Sorghum Shoot Fly, Atherigona soccata in Sorghum, Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench
Sorghum production is affected by a wide array of biotic constraints, of which sorghum shoot fly, Atherigona soccata is the most important pest, which severely damages the sorghum crop during the seedling stage. Host plant resistance is one of the major components to control sorghum shoot fly, A. soccata. To understand the nature of gene action for inheritance of shoot fly resistance, we evalua...
متن کاملCorrelation studies for shootfly resistance traits in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)
A field experiment was conducted to study the relation of different plant characters and shoot fly resistance in sorghum. Leaf glossiness showed high positive correlation with shootfly oviposition and dead hearts. The oviposition percentage on 14 and 21 days after seedling emergence exhibited significant positive correlation with dead hearts. Leaf trichome density on adaxial and abaxial leaf su...
متن کاملRAPD based DNA markers linked to anthracnose disease resistance in Sorghum bicolor ( L.) Moench.
Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum graminicola is one of the major diseases of sorghum. The locus for disease resistance in sorghum [Sorghum biocolor (L.) Moench] accession G73 was found to segregate as a simple recessive trait in a cross to susceptible cultivar HC136. In order to identify molecular markers linked to the locus for disease resistance, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) an...
متن کاملEffect of temperature on seed setting behaviour in rabi sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L). Moench)
Pollen viability is an important parameter of yield as for as interaction of temperature with seed setting is concerned. Rabi sorghum is one of the major cereal crops after rice, wheat and maize. In sorghum seed setting is affected when the flowering period coincides with minimum temperature. In this context comparison was made with pollen fertility percentage and seed setting percentage vs min...
