Abstract

Sorghum(Sorghum bicolor(L.)Moench)is an important upland crop and is the staple food of 0.5 billion people in the world.Studies on germplasm resources of sorghum were summarized in this paper,including origins,classification,collection,preservation,researches on genetic diversity and the construction of core germplasms.We provided suggestions for the future studies on sorghum germplasm resources in China.
