A plan for the development of Cytoplasmic-genic Male-sterility in Sorghum

Abstract

Intensivo hybrid production programme in Sorghum requires development of cytoplasmic genie male-storility in many suitable agronomic bases. As most such typos happen to be fertility restorers, the straight transforence of storility genos through simple backcrossos is impossible. The process of alternato backérossing and selfing is time consuming. Therefore, a plan of simultaneous test-crossing and backerossing is suggested which will ultimately load to the development of both A and B lines.
