Abstract
Reducing the light intensity to 75% of normal sunlight increased height, node number, internode length and leaf length and decreased leaf width, plant dry weight and grain yield in 5 sorghum cultivars; it delayed ear emergence in some cultivars. Yields were markedly decreased by further reducing the light intensity to 25%. The yield reduction due to shading was much smaller in cv. IS-2031 with broad and spreading leaves than in cv. IS-531 with erect leaves
