BACKGROUND: Sorghum bicolor and Sorghum halepense can readily hybridize, creating difficulty in identification. No genetic tools exist to accurately distinguish S. bicolor, S. halepense, and their hybrids. Detecting hybridization is essential to monitor crop-to-weed introgression. This study utilizes a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the internal transcribed spacer region between S. bicolor and S....
