description: The potential of hybrid sorghum to provide yield advantages under drought stressed conditions in semiarid areas was shown several authors ( Haussmann, et al., 1998, 2000, Rattunde et al., 2013). Higher yield advantages were shown with Nigerian germplasm in preliminary on-station testing (Andrews, 1975), though the parental materials have since been lost. The objective of this work is to identify suitable seed parents towards developing hybrid sorghum for the Nigerian environment, constrained most particularly by non-appropriate indigenous sources of stable malesterility maintenance on the female parents, within the diversesorghum landraces.
