      abstract     = {In recent decades the effects of climate change became more
                      visible and the problems it causes for agricultural
                      production and yield maintenance. Future crops need to be
                      higher yielding than today, but at the same time more
                      resilient to drought and increased temperatures, especially
                      in drought-prone regions with erratic precipitation.
                      Sorghum, more heat and drought tolerant than maize, presents
                      an interesting candidate for potential genetic material to
                      provide this increased resilience, containing traits and the
                      underlying genetic loci conferring better performance.
                      Compared to the above-ground tissues, root systems are less
                      investigated, but an improvement in this “hidden half”
                      also improves yield. Due to their close relationship,
                      findings in sorghum may be easily incorporated into maize
                      breeding programs. In this chapter we will review recent
                      literature on sorghum and other cereal root system
                      improvements and provide unpublished data on the natural
                      variation of sorghum root development.},
