Mating Design and Genetic Structure of a Multi-Parent Advanced Generation Intercross (MAGIC) Population of Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench).

TL;DR: The mating design and structure of the first MAGIC population in sorghum was described, found to be rich in allelic content with high fragmentation of its genome, making it fit for both gene mapping and effective marker-assisted breeding.

Targeted mutagenesis of a conserved anther-expressed P450 gene confers male sterility in monocots.

TL;DR: A custom designed homing endonuclease, Ems26+, was used to generate in planta mutations in the rice, sorghum and wheat orthologs of maize Ms26, which prevents pollen formation resulting in male sterile plants and fertility was restored in Sorghum using a transformed copy of maizeMs26.

Sorghum Grain Mold

TL;DR: In this bulletin, attempts have been made to briefly describe the important findings of research done at ICRISAT and elsewhere, and to emphasize some of the recent developments on management of grain mold, including refined screening techniques, sources of resistance, genetics and mechanisms of resistances, and other management options, including an integrated management approach.

Combining ability and heterosis as influenced by male-sterility inducing cytoplasms in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]

TL;DR: The results revealed that cytoplasm and its first-order interaction with year, R- and A-lines did not appear to contribute to variation in iso-nuclear hybrids for plant height and grain yield, and A2 CMS system is as efficient as A1 with a slight edge over A1 for commercial exploitation.

Sorghum Hybrid Parents Research at ICRISAT–Strategies, Status, and Impacts

TL;DR: A large number of hybrids have been developed and released/marketed for commercial cultivation in Asia, the Americas, Australia and Africa and have contributed significantly to increase grain and forage yields in several countries.

Genetic relationship between some cytoplasmic male sterility systems in sorghum

TL;DR: Among the non-milo cytoplasms, A2 among exotics and maldandi (M31-2A and M35-1A) among Indian sources, can be utilised for practical exploitation in breeding programmes and also becomes difficult in the same order for utilization in the breeding programmes.
