The heriditary Character of the growth Period in F2 of chinese sorghum was studied. Results indicated that the heredity of growth Period in F2 was guantitative inheritance. The expression of the trait in F2 was mainly determined by the parents. By using the mid-parents value to Predict the mean value of the trait in F2, it promised to know the exhibition Period of most individualities in the F2 population; while according to the difference of growth period between Parents the deviation range of the trait in F2 could be Predicted, and the variation of the trait in F2 could be calculated. These would be beneficial for design of breeding programme. Whether the research method also fit to other quantitative traits test should be further studied. The results also showed that the predominance of earlier maturation genes was presented in local Sorghum varieties, due to the effects of continuous selection. It may be important to the northern region breeding programs for earlier maturation breeding object.
