Adaptation to diverse semi-arid environments of sorghum genotypes having different plant type and sensitivity to photoperiod

2008-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Climatologists, breeders and agronomists need tools to translate variable climatic conditions in semi-arid environments into probable performance, and to translate genotype characteristics into agro-ecological fit of cultivars. Although geographic adaptation of West African sorghum cultivars is largely related to local characteristics of the wet season, they require, in addition to drought tolerance, effective phe...
