Table 5 Shoot fly incidence data for the 2-way, 4-way, and 8-way cross derived lines, evaluated alongside their parental lines and resistant check cultivars. The table includes the pooled mean values across multiple locations. The data is categorized using the following designations: DH for Dead Hearts, R for Resistant, MR for Moderately Resistant, S for Susceptible, and HS for Highly Susceptible.

From: Development of high yielding and stress resilient post-rainy season sorghum cultivars using a multi-parent crossing approach
