Abstract excerpt
Ethiopia, the probable center of origin and diversity for sorghum [Sorghum bicolor L. (Moench)] and with unique ecogeographic features, possesses a large number of sorghum landraces that have not been well studied. Increased knowledge of this diverse germplasm through large-scale genomic characterization may contribute for understanding of evolutionary biology, and adequate use of these valuable resources from...
