Title
Genetic variability in a long season random-mating grain sorghum population
P.E. Lukhele; A. T. Obilana 1984
Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Coefficient of variation was lowest (3.8%) for days to 50% flowering among the sorghum S1 lines.
- Observation Coefficient of variation was highest (37.7%) for peduncle length among the sorghum S1 lines.
- Association Genotype by environment interaction variances were larger than genetic variances for every character.
- Association Grain yield per plot was genetically correlated positively with height, flag leaf length and number of spikes per head.
- Association Grain yield per plot was genetically correlated positively with number of heads per plot.
- Association Grain yield per plot was genetically correlated negatively with days to 50% flowering and peduncle length.
