Sorghum grains are mostly used for the roti preparation. The M 35-1 (Maldhandi) a sorghum cultivar is known for its good quality of roti due to having pearly white grain colour, its flour having higher water holding capacity, and good organoleptic taste. However, this cultivar is low yielder. To evolve sorghum high yielding hybrid genotype coupled with good roti qualities, systematic breeding program was planned and executed to overcome this problem. Fifteen newly developed genotypes of hybrid sorghum along with check DSV 6 were studied for various nutritional quality parameters, with special reference to the roti quality. Considering nutritional quality and organoleptic evaluation parameters studied for roti quality, none of the newly developed hybrid genotype was found superior than the check DSV 6. | Nutritional quality of hybrid sorghum genotypes
