Abstract

Subjecting sorghum plants at different growth stages to soil moisture stress for 16 days decreased grain yields by 1.1-23.8%; yield reduction was the greatest in plants subjected to stress during the period of 59-74 days after sowing when the processes of heading and grain filling were actively in progress
