Abstract
Abstract
This chapter focuses on ideotype breeding for improving the yield and related traits, abiotic stress resistance, and quality of grain and forage sorghum. Ideotype breeding involves defining and breeding for the target traits to reach the objectives and differs from classical plant breeding which focuses more on yield. Due to diversification of cropping systems and ever-changing climatic conditions, change in farmers' preferences and several production constraints, breeders need to focus on more traits simultaneously.
