Influence of soil fertility and soil salinity on the performance of some sorghum genotypes / M. Denic

Public ISBD Accompagne Drought-tolerant crops for Southern Africa Titre : Influence of soil fertility and soil salinity on the performance of some sorghum genotypes Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : M. Denic, Auteur Année de publication : 1996 Importance : p 119-138 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : SCIENCES AGRICOLES Mots-clés : SOL  FERTILITE  SALINITE  GENOTYPE DE SORGHO  MOZAMBIQUE Résumé : Sorghum is one of the three most important crops in Mozambique. It is grown throughout the country but mainly in northern and central regions. It is sown in diverse soil types, mostly by smallholder farmers. The performance of some sorghum genotypes under increased conditions of acid and saline soil is reported. Several groups of the genotypes were evaluated on acid soil in the central part of the country (Chimoio) and on saline soil in the south (Umbeluzi). There was a large variation in tolerance of both soil acidity (aluminum toxicity) and soil salinity. Many genotypes exhibiting tolerance of soil acidity/aluminum toxicity also demonstrated tolerance of soil salinity. Work on the evaluation and selection of the most suitable genotypes continues.
