"Exposure of sorghum (sorghum bicolor) during flowering time for\r\na period of 10-15 days to high temperature stress (>36-38oC)\r\nreduced pollen germination, failure of fertilization and flower\r\nabortion. A number of improved varieties of sorghum have recently\r\nbeen released for the Sudan and Sahel zones of Nigeria,\r\nwith their dissemination limited by seed availability. In order to\r\nimprove the supply of Breeder and Foundation seeds for production\r\nof certified, these varieties; SAMSORG 45 and SAMSORG\r\n46 with two old but popular varieties SAMSORG 41 and SAMSORG\r\n17 were grown under irrigation at Dadinkowa (10.18N,\r\n11.27S) to assess their productivity during the dry season at\r\ntwo planting dates (October and January) for 2 seasons (2015 &\r\n2016). Result showed that October planting which flowering and\r\nseed set coincided with the average maximum temperature of\r\n27oC recorded in January produced good seed while December/\r\nJanuary planting which flowering and seed set coincided with\r\naverage maximum temperature of 42oC recorded in April had\r\npoor or no seed set on panicles especially in 2016. Rise in the\r\naverage maximum temperature (2016) in the month of March\r\n(350C) and April 2016 (410C) resulted to 90-100% no seed set\r\non SAMSORG 17, SAMSORG 45 and SAMSORG 46 as it coincided\r\nwith the flowering time thus producing sterile panicle. This\r\nsuggest that planting date and temperature significantly affect\r\nseed production of sorghum in the dry season."^^ . "2017" . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "M"^^ . "Yeye"^^ .
