Abstract
Study examined responses of growth, yield and physiological attributes of sorghum varieties to watering regimes under screenhouse condition. Experiment was 3 watering levels and six sorghum varieties. Watering regimes were well watering at full field capacity, 60 and 40 % field capacity and sorghum varieties were CSR-01, Bida local, SK5912, SAMSORG 14, 17 and 44. Data were collected on root and shoot biomass, water use, stomatal conductance, proline, water soluble carbohydrate and leaf chlorophyll concentrations of cacao seedlings. Results showed that watering level affected growth and physiological characters of sorghum varieties. Among watering treatments, differences were obtained in biomass, densities of stomatal, concentrations of chlorophyll, and proline and water soluble carbohydrates. Sorghum varieties evaluated differed in their responses to watering regimes based on the measured growth and physiological attributes. Sorghum had better vigour of growth when grown under 100 and 60 % field capacity watering compared with 40 % FC. The measured variables were superior at well watering (100 % FC) compared with 40 % FC. Most of the measured growth and physiological variables appeared to play important roles for moisture deficit stress tolerance in sorghum.
