Methods for producing a plant comprise crossing sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R with another plant. Sorghum seed, plants and plant parts produced by crossing sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R with another plant are described. Methods for producing a plant containing in its genetic material one or more traits introgressed into 2PKMJ88R include one or both of backcross conversion and transformation. Hybrid sorghum seed, plants or plant parts produced by crossing the sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R or a locus conversion of 2PKMJ88R with another sorghum variety are disclosed. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A seed of sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R, representative seed of the variety having been deposited under NCMA Accession Number 202403031. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) A plant, non-seed plant part, seed or plant cell produced by growing the sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R seed of claim 1. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The plant, non-seed plant part, seed or plant cell of claim 2, further comprising a locus conversion, wherein the plant or a plant grown from the plant part, seed or plant cell otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R when grown under the same environmental conditions. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of claim 3, wherein the locus conversion confers a property selected from the group consisting of abiotic stress tolerance, altered phosphate content, altered antioxidant content, altered fatty acid profile, altered essential amino acid profile, altered carbohydrate content, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, disease resistance, and salt tolerance. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) A method for modifying a cell of the seed of claim 1 or a cell of a plant grown from the seed, the method comprising performing genome editing techniques on the cell of the seed or the cell of the plant, such that the cell of the seed or the cell of the plant is modified. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) A sorghum seed produced by crossing the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 4 with a different plant. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) An F1 hybrid plant produced by growing the seed of claim 6. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) A plant part comprising at least one cell of the F1 hybrid plant of claim 7. ### Claim 9 (depends on 4) A method of producing a sorghum seed, the method comprising crossing two sorghum plants and harvesting the resultant sorghum seed, wherein at least one of the sorghum plants is the sorghum plant of claim 4. ### Claim 10 (depends on 2) A sorghum seed produced by crossing the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 2 with a different plant. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) An F1 hybrid plant produced by growing the seed of claim 10. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) A plant part comprising at least one cell of the F1 hybrid plant of claim 11. ### Claim 13 (depends on 10) A non-seed plant part produced by growing the seed of claim 10. ### Claim 14 (depends on 11) The F1 hybrid seed of claim 11 further comprising a single locus conversion. ### Claim 15 (depends on 2) A method of producing a sorghum seed, the method comprising crossing two sorghum plants and harvesting the resultant sorghum seed, wherein at least one of the sorghum plants is the sorghum plant of claim 2. ### Claim 16 (depends on 2) A method for producing a second sorghum plant or plant part, the method comprising doubling haploid seed generated from a cross of the plant or non-seed plant part of claim 2 with an inducer variety, thereby producing the second sorghum plant or plant part. ### Claim 17 (depends on 2) A method comprising isolating nucleic acids from the plant, non-seed plant part, seed or plant cell of claim 2. ### Claim 18 A method of plant breeding, the method comprising: (a) crossing a plant of sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R with a second plant comprising a desired single locus to produce F1 progeny plants, representative seed of said sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R having been deposited under NCMA Accession Number 202403031; (b) selecting at least a first progeny plant from step (a) that comprises the single locus to produce a selected progeny plant; (c) crossing the selected progeny plant from step (b) with a plant of sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R to produce a backcross progeny plant that comprises the single locus. ### Claim 19 A plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell of sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R, representative seed of the variety having been deposited under NCMA Accession Number 202403031, the plant, non-seed plant part, seed, or plant cell further comprising a single locus conversion, wherein the single locus conversion is introduced into sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R by backcrossing or transformation, and wherein the plant or a plant grown from the plant part, seed or plant cell otherwise comprises all of the physiological and morphological characteristics of sorghum variety 2PKMJ88R when grown under the same environmental conditions. ### Claim 20 (depends on 19) The plant, plant part, seed, or plant cell of claim 19, wherein the locus conversion confers a property selected from the group consisting of abiotic stress tolerance, altered phosphate content, altered antioxidant content, altered fatty acid profile, altered essential amino acid profile, altered carbohydrate content, herbicide resistance, insect resistance, disease resistance, and salt tolerance.
