No. GP-645 to GP-660, PI 655260 to PI 655275) were developed and released by Texas AgriLife Research (formerly the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station), Lubbock, TX, in 2006. These lines are 3-dwarf (dw 1Dw 2dw 3dw 4) in height and possess unique combinations of tan plant color, agronomic traits, traits for resistance to head smut [Sphacelotheca reiliana (Kuhn) Clinton], rust [Puccinia purpurea (Cooke)], zonate leaf spot (Gloeocercospora sorghi Bain and Edgerton), bacterial leaf streak [Xanthomonas holcicola (Elliot) Starr and Burkholder], and bacterial leaf stripe [Pseudomonas andropogoni (E.F.
