GENETIC VARIABILITY AND ASSOCIATION AMONG TRAITS IN SORGHUM [(Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)] GENOTYPES AT FEDIS, EASTERN ETHIOPIA

Abstract:

Sorghum is an important food crop that is consumed by millions of people as a staple food source in arid and semi-arid areas of the developing world, especially Africa. It withstands hot and dry conditions better than most cultivated crops in Ethiopia. Sorghum is the most important crop for food security in Ethiopia's harsh conditions, where other food crops are difficult to grow. The experiment was conducted at Fedis Agricultural Research Center on station in 2022/23 main cropping season using 8x8 simple lattice designs. The study was initiated to determine the extent of genetic variation, heritability, and genetic advance in sorghum genotypes; to assess the associations among yield and yield related traits, and to determine the direct and indirect effects of traits on grain yield of sorghum genotypes. The analysis of variance revealed highly significant (P
