In year 2008, Sorghum halepense samples were gathered from 16 localities in Timis County in order to initiate a study of plant height, number of internodes, length of the last internodes, panicle length, and number of branches. The data statistical interpretation was realized throughout SPSS.  Length of the last internodes and panicle length are proved to be, after statistical interpretation, the factors with the higher influence on plant height. We observed that the length of the last internodes and panicle length exerted a major influence on plant height achieving a correlation coefficient between 0.481 and 0.865. Correlation is significant at 0,05 level.
