Exploitation of heterosis using diverse parental lines in Rabi Sorghum
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) is one of the major crops for grain and fodder, widely grown in India under rain fed conditions. Rabi sorghum is grown in an area of 5.5 million hectares mainly in the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh with average productivity of 854 kg/ha. Despite low productivity, Rabi sorghum continues to be an important component of dry land economy i...
متن کاملCombining ability and heterosis for diastatic activity in grain sorghum
Eighty-five sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) entries including 13 restorer-lines (lines), 5 maintainer-lines (testers), 65 F1 hybrids, and two controls, were grown at Muzarabani, Zimbabwe during the rainy seasons of 1986/87 and 1987/88 to study the combining ability and heterosis for diastatic activity. Grain samples were evaluated for diastatic activity, expressed in Sorghum Diastatic Uni...
متن کاملStudy of Gene Effects for Stalk Sugar Yield and Its Component Traits in Sweet Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] Using Generation Mean Analysis
Generation mean analysis was carried out to estimate the nature andmagnitude of gene effects for sugar yield and its component traits in sweet sorghum[Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench. Six basic generations, namely P1, P2, F1, F2,BC1P1, BC1P2 of four crosses involving seven diverse parents were evaluated inrainy 2009. The mean performance of the F1 in all the crosses indicated dominantgene effect fo...

متن کاملQTL mapping of forage yield and forage yield component traits in Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense.
The sorghum-sudangrass hybrid (Sorghum bicolor x S. sudanense) is an important forage crop. However, little is known about the genetic mechanisms related to forage yield and the 4 forage yield component traits in this forage crop. In this study, a linkage map was constructed with 124 assigned SSR markers using an F2 mapping population derived from the crossing of sorghum Tx623A and sudangrass S...
