Narrative
The sorghum ARS_BTX623_NAM_ESCT population is composed of three biparental parental subpopulations with a total of 769 recombinant inbred lines (F7-F8 RILs) entries. The biparental subpopulations are referred to as: BTx623xHKZ; BTx623xNSZ and BTx623x Kaoliang. This population includes new sorghum germplasm that displayed transgressive segregation compared to cold tolerant parent based on germinability(>than 70%), field emergence (60-80%) and seedling vigor (robust score of 1.5-2.5 on a scale of 1 (robust vigor) to 5 (poor vigor), traits that are needed for early season cold tolerance in US production settings. Majority of RILs displayed combine height of 1-1.4 m and flowering time of 70-75 days. The genotype data for ARS_BTX623_NAM_ESCT population is archived at NCBI sequence read archive under project SRP8838986 [(1) Marla et al., 2019, Genes|Genomes|Genetics]. The population served as primary genetic resource for successful identification and application of DNA markers that are useful for improvement of sorghum chilling tolerance [(2)Marla et al., 2023, Genes|Genomes|Genetics]. The availability of published advanced genetics and information on sorghum chilling tolerance made this NAM population highly valuable for public availability as it is actually in use as germplasm for detailed physiological studies of sorghum chilling tolerance by various public and private research groups.
