Data from: Correlations among agronomic traits obtained from sorghum accessions planted in a field infected with three important fungal diseases.

Data based on a total of 179 sorghum accessions from Ethiopia, Gambia, and Senegal maintained by the USDA-ARS, Plant Genetic Resources Conservation Unit, Griffin, Georgia, USA, and planted in replicated plots in Isabela, Puerto Rico during the 2017 and 2018 seasons. Disease severity rating of 1 to 5 was used of the anthracnose, grain mold, and rust infections. Data were collected by Louis K. Prom, Hugo E. Cuevas, Ezekiel J. S. Ahn, Thomas S. Isakeit, and Clint W. Magill between March 2017 and December 2018. Seed weight (100 seeds) was based in grams, percent germination was based on the number of seeds out of 100 that germinated, plant height measured from the soil to top of the plant in centimeters, panicle length measured from the first branch with racemes to the top of the panicle, grain yield of three harvested panicles per accession in grams and the flowering date was based on Julian days.

本数据集以源自埃塞俄比亚、冈比亚与塞内加尔的共计179份高粱种质资源为研究材料，这些种质由美国佐治亚州格里芬市美国农业部农业研究局（USDA-ARS）植物遗传资源保护中心维护，并于2017、2018种植季在波多黎各伊萨贝拉的重复试验田种植。针对炭疽病、谷粒霉病及锈病的侵染情况，本数据集采用1至5级的病害严重度分级标准开展评级。数据集采集工作由Louis K. Prom、Hugo E. Cuevas、Ezekiel J. S. Ahn、Thomas S. Isakeit与Clint W. Magill于2017年3月至2018年12月期间完成。其中，百粒重（100粒种子）以克为单位；发芽率为100粒种子中发芽种子数的占比；株高为从土壤表面至植株顶端的高度，单位为厘米；穗长为从首个带总状花序的分枝至穗顶端的长度；单份种质的3个收获穗的籽粒产量以克为单位；开花日期采用儒略日（Julian days）记录。
