Harnessing the genetic potential of exotic sorghum germplasm for drought resilience in arid regions of Ethiopia

The narrow genetic diversity of modern sorghum varieties indicates that favorable alleles for the breeding process are frequently lacking in elite germplasm. To address this challenge, here, we use a multiparent breeding technique that employs exotic germplasm to introduce new alleles into an elite...
