abstract: Sorghum is a major cereal crop globally with
economically important uses such as food, feed, fodder, fuel,
and fiber. Crop improvement and precision breeding can be
achieved by understanding and utilizing the variability in
sorghum germplasm collection. A total of 242 germplasm
accessions of sorghum minicore were assessed for the extent
of variability, trait associations and genetic diversity.
Sorghum minicore collection was evaluated for agronomic
traits in two post-rainy seasons at ICRISAT- Patancheru,
India. Large variability was observed for agronomic traits
and strong associations between the traits studied. The 242
minicore accessions were grouped into six clusters under a
hierarchical dendrogram. Genotypes from diverse clusters
can be used in crossing programs to combine desirable traits
and can be used as donors in breeding programs.
