Its chapters cover topics in origin and taxonomy, morphology and breeding behavior, genetics, and cytogenetics, also looking at production, nutrition, and alternate uses. The durra race is Ethiopian in origin and its introgression with wild forms permitted adaptation to drier conditions. These have migrated and adapted to the currently known crop that is cultivated in the winter season and com 606 $aSorghum$xGenetic engineering 606 $aSorghum products$zIndia 615 0$aSorghum$xGenetic engineering. 615 0$aSorghum products 676 $a633.174233 700 $aReddy$b P.
