To explore the possibility of using alternative CMS (non-milo cytoplasm) sources, we studied the effect of cytoplasm on forage yield and quality in sorghum. Nine female (CMS) lines (representing three each in A1,A 2, and A3 cytoplasms) and five male lines were used to generate 45 hybrids, which were evaluatedinthreeenvironments.Cytoplasmanditsfirst-orderinteractionwithlocationandmaleandfemalelinesshowedthe presence of a cytoplasmic effect on the majority of fodder yield and quality traits examined.
