Abstract
Objective: To describe the morphological and agronomic characteristics of VCS TOLEO, a red grain sorghum variety.
Design/Methodology/Approach: VCS TOLEO was developed at INIFAP’s Valle de Culiacán Experimental Station in 2009 through a pedigree selection breeding process. From 2013 to 2018, it was evaluated in yield trials, and selected for its tolerance to pests, diseases, and high productivity.
Results: Based on these evaluations, the VCS TOLEO variety recorded the highest average grain and forage yields.
Study Limitations/Implications: The promotion of this variety in the environments of Sinaloa is desirable.
Findings/Conclusions: VCS TOLEO showed adaptation to the climatic conditions typical of the region
