Abstract
The study was undertaken to evaluate sudan grass germplasm cultures for
combining ability in respect of forage yield and its components and also to assess the per
so performance and magnitude of heterosis in sorghum x sudan grass hybrids. Forty
eight FTs in line x tester fashion involving two sorghum male sterile lines and 24 cultures
of Sudan grass germplasm as testers, their parents and four checks (DFJ-1, SSV-74,
SSG 59-3 and SSG 898) were planted in a randomized block design during Rabi-summer
season of 2000-2001 at Regional Research Station, Raichur.
