Abstract excerpt
Preharvest sprouting (PHS), triggered primarily by wet or humid conditions at maturity and further influenced by temperature, causes premature grain germination in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench), reducing yield and grain quality. To elucidate the genetic architecture of seed dormancy and germination responses related to PHS tolerance, 172 genetically diverse Sorghum Association Panel accessions were...
