Manipulating plant geometry to improve microclimate, grain yield, and harvest index in grain sorghum
Cultivar selection, planting geometry, and plant population are the key factors determining grain sorghum yields in water deficit areas. The objective of this study was to investigate whether clump geometry (three plants clustered) improves microclimate within crop canopy when plants are grown under varying water levels. In a 2-yr sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) greenhouse study, plants wer...

chow and Sinclair, 1991), and sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) (Chapman et al., 1993). An approach based on a linear rate of increase in harvest index Deficiencies in the HI approach, however, may be (HI) with time after anthesis has been used as a simple means to predict grain growth and yield in many crop simulation models. When associated with use of a constant rate of HI increase applied to...
متن کاملEvaluation of yield of promising dual purpose grain- forage sorghum lines (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) using drought tolerance indices
To evaluate and select the promising lines of dual purpose grain-forage sorghum under drought stress conditions, a field experiment assplit plot arrangements in randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out atresearch field station of Seed and Plant Improvement Research Institute, Karaj, Iran, in 2014 and 2015 growing seasons. Irrigation levels (60 mm, 120 mm and 180 ...
متن کاملAnalysis of grain yield stability and assessment of genotype × environment interaction for grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) genotypes
The interaction of genotype × environment creates complications in yield prediction and is a challenge for agronomy and plant breeding programs. To evaluate grain yield stability and genotype × environment interaction for 18 local and exotic grain sorghum cultivars, lines, and hybrids, a field experiment was conducted using randomized complete block design with three replications in four region...
متن کاملQuality and Biological Value of Grain Sorghum
Sceds from over 9,000 lines in the world sorghum [Sorghinn bicolor (L.) Moeochj collection were classified for endosperm phenotype to identify floury endospermO lines and evaluate each for potential increases in lysine concentration. Sixty-two floury endosperin lines were selected and analyzed for protein and lysine composition. Two floury lines of Ethiopian origin, IS 11167 and IS 11758, were ...
