- W2253676043 abstract "Yield and adaptation breeding for winter sorghum improvement focuses on distinct traits and trait-based breeding approaches for improving yield, with an emphasis on grain and fodder quality traits. As the crop is grown under receding soil moisture conditions, physiological parameters are important as well. Dry matter accumulation and distribution play an important role in determining yield and influence soil moisture, which in turn depends on depth of soil. Strategic research that has gone into breeding for rabi hybrids is discussed in detail. Among the biotic stresses, drought and cold influence winter sorghum productivity. Among the drought stresses, breeding aspects for postflowering/terminal drought tolerance is discussed in detail. Genetic improvement strategies, including characterization of drought environments, screening methodologies, genetics, trait associations, and breeding approaches, are presented with special emphasis on the stay-green trait associated with tolerance to terminal drought. Cooler night temperatures occurring at anthesis are detrimental to yield, especially in hybrids. The research in this area, which is relatively new, is briefly discussed. Among the biotic stresses, charcoal rot and shoot flies, aphids, and shoot bugs are economically important. The genetics and inheritance, screening methodologies, resistance sources, and breeding strategies are presented for each of these issues. Grain quality from the morphological appearance determines its acceptability. Bold, lustrous, and white grains are preferred by cultivators and consumers. Genetics of grain quality traits and selection criteria are also discussed, and progress achieved through participatory varietal selection in achieving desirable genotypes is briefly presented." @default.
