Identification of barley genotypes with higher protein content coupled with bold grains for food and malt barley improvement under sub-tropical climates
Grain protein content is very important trait with respect to barley grains meant for food, feed and malt purposes. Barley grain protein content was evaluated in several genotypes for two years at different locations under ...
Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci Controlling High Iron and Zinc Content in Self and Open Pollinated Grains of Pearl Millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.]
Pearl millet is a multipurpose grain/fodder crop of the semi-arid tropics, feeding many
of the world’s poorest and most undernourished people. Genetic variation among
adapted pearl millet inbreds and hybrids suggests it ...
GGE biplot model for environmental delineation and identification of resistant sources for stripe rust and spot blotch in India
Stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei) and spot blotch (Bipolaris sorokiniana) are major
biotic constraints in yield maximization in barley in India. Stripe rust is wide spread in different
agro-ecologies of India ...
Intra-population genetic variance for grain iron and zinc contents and agronomic traits in pearl millet
Crop biofortification is a sustainable approach for fighting micronutrient malnutrition in
the world. The estimation of variance components in genetically broad-based populations
provides information about their genetic ...
QTL mapping of pearl millet rust resistance using an integrated DArT- and SSR-based linkage map
Rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia
substriata var. indica, is one of the most important
production constraints of pearl millet worldwide,
leading to grain yield losses of up to 76 % as well as
major losses in fodder yield ...
