Genetic diversity and combining ability among sorghum conversion lines
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L] Moench) was first introduced to the United States in the 1800s. These introductions consisted of tropical varieties with a short day photoperiod response that limited their use in temperate hybrid breeding programs. Commercial exploitation of F1 hybrids in grain sorghum …

Genetic dissection of sorghum height and maturity variation using sorghum converted lines and their exotic progenitors
Sorghum is a photoperiod-sensitive, short-day tropical species that shows long delays in flowering at temperate latitudes. Most temperate-adapted sorghum cultivars are photoperiod-insensitive and dwarfed for grain production. Classical segregation studies predict that temperate adaptedness involves …
