“…The significant phenotypic values for various stay-green related traits confirmed the inherent potential of the stay-green parent B35 [17, 48, 61]. High heritability (h 2 ) values observed for the component traits of stay-green and grain yield in the present study substantiated high h 2 observed for stay-green trait [10, 82, 83] and for grain yield [64].…”

“…IS 12662C (SC 171), the source of A2 cytoplasm (the sterile line) for the development of hybrids, which belongs to the Caudatum Nigricans group (Guinea race) was also obtained from Ethiopia (Schertz 1977). Moreover, studies identified two sorghum lines native to Ethiopia (B35 and E36-1) as sources of “stay-green” for drought tolerance, which are currently used in marker assisted breeding programs (Rosenow et al 1983; Reddy et al 2009). Wu et al (2006) identified seven sorghum lines of Ethiopian origin to be resistant to Greenbug biotype I.…”

“…Despite the major research emphasis during the last two decades on improving drought resistance in sorghum (Rosenow et al Strategies for crop improvement with respect to drought resistance include the identi®cation and selection of traits that, at least partly, contribute to improved performance of the crop under drought conditions. This trait-based crop improvement strategy allows selective accumulation of the traits that contribute to drought resistance for a speci®c target environment (Blum 1983;Rosenow et al 1983;Ludlow and Muchow 1990). However, the success of this approach is limited by the diculty experienced in identi®cation of genotypes for several traits, due to lack of proper control of the intensity and timing of stress.…”

“…In grain sorghum, the ability to resist premature senescence due to post-¯owering drought stress is termed the``stay-green'' trait (Rosenow et al 1983). Plants with the stay-green trait resist premature plant and leaf death, develop grain normally, and resist charcoal rot and lodging when exposed to moisture stress during the late stages of grain development (Rosenow and Clark 1981;Rosenow et al 1983;Rosenow 1984;Tenkouano et al 1993;Walulu et al 1994).…”
