The effect of different tillage systems on the yield and incidence of root and stalk rot of sorghum
Flett, B.C.
Abstract
The effect of different tillage systems on grain yield, root and stalk rot
of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (Moensch) L) was studied over four
seasons at Potchefstroom. Seasonal effects were apparent for all
parameters, indicating significant environmental effects. Tillage
treatments had no significant effects on grain yield and root and stalk rot
of sorghum. Positive correlations existed between grain yield and root rot
at the soft dough stage and root rot and stalk rot at soft dough and
harvest.

Résumé
L'effet de plusieurs systemes appliques sur le rendement de grain, racine
et tige du sorgho (Sorghum bicolor) etait etudie pendant quatre
saisons a Potchfstroom. Les effets saisonniers etaient presque apparents
au niveau de tous les Parametres, indiquant les effets considerables de
l'environement. Les traitements pendant la culture n'ont pas eu des effets
considerables sur les rendements des grains, racines et tiges du sorgho.
Les correlations positives ont existe entre le rendement des grains,
racines et tige pendant le stade doux du ble et la recolte.
Mots Clés
Le rendement des grains, la pourriture des racines, Sorhum bicolor, la pourriture des tiges, la culture
