Abstract
African Crop Science Journal, Vol. 4. No.4, pp. 463-469, 1996 The effect of different tillage systems on the yield and incidence of root and stalk rot of sorghum B.C. FLETT (Received 27 March, 1996; accepted 24 September, 1996) Code Number: CS96087 Sizes of Files: Text: 24.5K Graphics: No associated graphics files ABSTRACT The effect of different tillage systems on grain yield, root and stalk rot of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (Moensch) L) was studied over four seasons at Potchefstroom. Seasonal effects were apparent for all parameters, indicating significant environmental effects. Tillage treatments had no significant effects on grain yield and root and stalk rot of sorghum. Positive correlations existed between grain yield and root rot at the soft dough stage and root rot and stalk rot at soft dough and harvest. Key Words: Grain yield, root rot, Sorghum bicolor, stalk rot, tillage RESUME L'effet de plusieurs systemes appliques sur le rendement de grain, racine et tige du sorgho (Sorghum bicolor) etait etudie pendant quatre saisons a Potchfstroom. Les effets saisonniers etaient presque apparents au niveau de tous les Parametres, indiquant les effets considerables de l'environement. Les traitements pendant la culture n'ont pas eu des effets considerables sur les rendements des grains, racines et tiges du sorgho. Les correlations positives ont existe entre le rendement des grains, racines et tige pendant le stade doux du ble et la recolte. Mots Cles: Le rendement des grains, la pourriture des racines, Sorhum bicolor, la pourriture des tiges, la culture Copyright 1996 African Crop Science Society
