Heterosis for fodder yield in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench)
A study was conducted to investigate the possibility of exploiting heterosis in breeding for improved fodder yield insorghum. Seven cytoplasmic male sterile lines and five testers were crossed in a line × tester mating design. A total of thirtyfive F1 hybrids along with twelve parents were evaluated...
