A novel sorghum variety designated PHLVRZJ and seed, plants, plant parts and plant cells thereof are produced from a cross of inbred sorghum varieties. Methods for producing a sorghum plant by crossing hybrid sorghum variety PHLVRZJ with another sorghum plant and methods for producing a sorghum plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into PHLVRZJ through backcross conversion and/or transformation, and to the sorghum seed, plant and plant part produced thereby are described. Sorghum variety PHLVRZJ, the seed, the plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and minor modifications of sorghum variety PHLVRZJ are provided.

The present disclosure provides unique sorghum plants with anthracnose resistance and their progeny. Such plants may comprise an introgressed QTL associated with anthracnose resistance. In certain aspects, compositions, including distinct polymorphic molecular markers, and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, selecting, and the like of plants or germplasm with anthracnose resistance are provided.

The present invention provides for compositions and methods for producing sorghum crop plants that are resistant to herbicides. In particular, the present invention provides for sorghum plants, plant tissues and plant seeds that contain altered acetolactate synthase (ALS) genes and proteins that are resistant to inhibition by herbicides that normally inhibit the activity of the ALS protein.
