Abstract
Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) in Sorghum bicolor is one of the main constrains for its production in the central region of Argentina, as grain maturation often coincides with rainy or high environmental humidity conditions. The obtention of more dormant genotypes with higher PHS resistance has always been a desirable trait for breeders but the typical quantitative nature of seed dormancy makes its manipulation difficult through classical breeding. Dissecting this quantitative variability into quantitative trait loci (QTL) is a main concern especially in cereal species. In this work, a sorghum segregating population including 190 families was genotyped with microsatellite markers and the SbABI5 candidate gene. A genetic map encompassing 96 markers and a total length of 1331 cM was built....
