Effects of crop rotation patterns on sorghum yield and its components.

Treatment	1,000-grain mass (g)	Grain mass per panicle (g)	Yield (kg/hm−2)
SSS	18.06 ± 1.1a	32.22 ± 0.8b	403.59 ± 9.4b
SRS	21.98 ± 1.3b	50.16 ± 1.2a	456.37 ± 6.4a
SMS	21.95 ± 0.5b	40.49 ± 1.6b	430.58 ± 7.8a

SSS, continuous sorghum cropping; SRS, sorghum–rapeseed crop rotation; SMS, sorghum–stem mustard–sorghum crop rotation. Different lowercase letters in the same column indicate significant differences among the treatments (p < 0.05).
