Moench} ispublished: pub subjects: s1.4 full_text_status: restricted abstract: Moderate coefficients of variability, very high to high heritability coupled with moderate genetic gain are reported for overall disease damage (score) in two consecutive years of 1996–97 and 1997–98 indicating the presence of non-additive gene action in the inheritance ol this trait. High heritability is being exhibited due to favourable influence of environment rather than the genotypes and selection for such traits may not be rewarding. Since the favourable ganes (leaf diseases parameters) were dispersed in different genotypes, multiple crossing is suggested to accumulate all these favourable genes into one genotype date: 2002 date_type: published publication: Agricultural Science Digest volume: 22 number: 3 publisher: Agricultural Research Communication Centre pagerange: 141-144 refereed: TRUE issn: 0253-150X official_url: http://indianjournals.com/ijor.aspx?target=ijor:asd&volume=22&issue=3&article=001 related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Variability+studies+for+various+disease+related+parameters+and+yield+contributing+characters+of+sorghum+%7BSorghum+bicolor+%28L.%29+Moench%7D&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo= related_url_type: pub citation: Durga, K K and Reddy, B V S and Reddy, M S S and Ganesh, M (2002) Variability studies for various disease related parameters and yield contributing characters of sorghum {Sorghum bicolor (L.)
