Response of African sorghum genotypes for drought tolerance under variable environments by Ahmad Yahaya, Muhammad, Shimelis Hussien, Nebie, Baloua, Mashilo, Jacob, Pop, Georgeta

“…The objective of this study was to determine drought tolerance and genotype-by-environment interaction (GEI) effects on grain yields of a population of African sorghum genotypes to identify high-yielding and drought-adapted genotypes for direct production and also for use in breeding programs. Two hundred and twenty-five sorghum genotypes were evaluated under non-stressed (NS), pre-anthesis drought stress (PreADS), and post-anthesis drought stress (PoADS) conditions under field and greenhouse environments using a 15 × 15 alpha lattice design in two replicates. …”
