BAP

3

30 lines (12 PS, 12 sweet, 6 grain)

RCB with sorghum types nested in groups

Night illumination

3

5 illumination levels x 2 PS lines (with check line separating illumination levels)

RCB

Row #

3

6 adjacent plot scenarios: 3 lines (forage, sweet, PS) x 2 sides (east or west)

RCB but not balanced with all treatments in all reps

Biomass

3

5 sampling times x 3 lines (forage, sweet, PS)

RCB with sampling time as a repeated measure

Density

3

3 densities (5, 15, 30 cm) x 3 lines (forage, sweet, PS)

RCB

RILs

3

130 RILs plus 10 repeats of a single line/rep

Incomplete Block (row-column alpha lattice design)

Uniformity

17

2 lines (forage, PS)

None - Same line planted in single range
