Abstract: This research aimed to compare the impact of bmr-6 and bmr-12 on yield and quality traits in five sorghum genetic backgrounds: Atlas, Early Hegari-Sart, Kansas Collier, Rox Orange and Wheatland. The results showed that bmr-6 and bmr-12 generally made a shorter plant height and bigger stem diameter. However, bmr-6 and bmr-12 had little effects on tiller number and leaf number.Bmr-6 and bmr-12 had negative effects on yield traits, but the effects were different in different genetic backgrounds. As for the quality traits, bmr-6 generally decreased the contents of NDF (Neutral Detergent Fiber) and ADF (Acid Detergent Fiber) and bmr-12 had no impact on the two traits. Both bmr-6 and bmr-12 decreased the contents of ADL (Acid Detergent Lignin) and ADF (Acid Detergent Lignin) in the five genetic backgrounds. Considering all factors, bmr-12 is more useful in breeding than bmr-6.

Key words: Sorghum, bmr-6, bmr-12, Yield traits, Quality traits
