The improvement of grain mold resistance in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] has been difficult, presumably because of the complex inheritance of the trait. The objective of this study was to determine the inheritance of grain mold resistance by generation means analysis. The [F.sub.1], [F.sub.2], and backcross generations of a cross between `Sureno' (a dual-purpose food grain and forage variety, resistant to grain mold) and `RTx430' (a widely adapted inbred line, highly susceptible to...

Inheritance of Grain Mold Resistance in Grain Sorghum without a Pigmented Testa.(Statistical Data Included)
Crop Science ; IN MANY REGIONS OF THE WORLD where sorghum is produced, grain mold is a serious disease that reduces grain quality and utilization. The term grain mold is used to describe the diseased appearance of sorghum grain resulting from infection by one or more parasitic fungal species (Williams and Rao,
Registration of Tx2911 Sorghum Germplasm.
Crop Science ; Tx2911 sorghum germplasm (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench), (Reg. no. GP-567, PI 607931), was developed by the Sorghum Improvement Program of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station at College Station, TX. Tx2911 was released because of its superior grain mold resistance and is suitable for use as a
Germination, Emergence, and Yield of 20 Plant--Color, Seed--Color Near-Isogenic Lines of Grain Sorghum.
Crop Science ; Germination, Emergence, and Yield of 20 Plant-Color, Seed-Color Near-Isogenic Lines of Grain Sorghum GRAIN SORGHUM MARKETS, such as the poultry and food industries, prefer white grain free of plant pigment stains. The sorghum seed industry responded to that need by developing white-seeded (clear
