Abstract

In order to study the yield and yield components of GRAIN SORGHUM (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) an experiment was conducted in 2008 at the research field of Seed and Plant Improvement Research Institute at Karaj (Alborz Province). Ten sorghum genotypes (KGS5, KGS11, KGS12, KGS15, KGS23, KGS24, KGS25, KGS31, ICSV274 and UT378B) were studied in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Different traits including grain and biological yields, harvest index (HI), the number of panicles/m2, the number of grains/panicle, 1000 GRAIN WEIGHT, the number of spikelets/panicle and the number of grains/spiklet were studied. The results indicated that the highest grain and biological yields (9895.8 and 51023 kg.ha-1) belonged to genotypes KGS5 and KGS23, respectively, while KGS31 and KGS11 genotypes had the lowest grain and biological yields (6348.2 and 35659 kg ha-1). Harvest index (HI) significantly differed between genotypes so that KGS5 and KGS31 genotypes had the highest and lowest HI (24.54% and 16.9%), respectively. With respect to the yield components, genotypes UT378B and ICSV274 had the highest number of grains/panicle and 1000 GRAIN WEIGHT, Alternatively. The weakest genotypes with regard to these characteristics were KGS24 and KGS12. As observed, high GRAIN YIELD of KGS5 genotype did not coincide with high yield components but its high HI could compensate for moderately low yield components. Overall, it could be concluded that the most important and effective trait in achieving high GRAIN YIELD in sorghum is high HI, so that sorghum GRAIN YIELD could be still further increased by increasing this trait. The KGS5 genotype was also selected as an ideotype for sorghum due to its superiority in case of GRAIN YIELD, HI, the number of grains/panicle and 1000 GRAIN WEIGHT.
