Abstract
ICSV112 (bred at ICRISAT; also released in Zimbabwe as SV1) was developed by pedigree selection in the F2-F5 from a multiple cross involving 5 lines and bulking in the F6. The hybrid is photoperiod insensitive; it matures in 110-120 days and has a height of 1.5-1.8 m, an exserted, elliptic, semicompact panicle and medium-sized, light-cream grains (100 grain weight, 2.5 g), with a thin pericarp, which contain ~9.6% protein and 2.6% lysine (per 100 g of protein). It has yielded an average of 3432 kg grain/ha and 11.4 t fodder/ha. It is suitable for intercropping with legumes during the rainy season.
