Correlations, Path Coefficient Analysis and Heritability for Quantitative Traits in Finger Millet Landraces
Knowledge of association between traits and heritability is important in breeding for purposes of effective trait selection. Such information on finger millet in east Africa is very limited. This study was intended to ...
Identification of QTLs and underlying candidate genes controlling grain Fe and Zn concentration in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L). Moench]
Biofortification is one of sustainable options for combating micronutrientmalnutrition.
For identifying genomic regions associated with
grain Fe and Zn in sorghum, RIL population (342 individuals) from cross 296B × PVK 801 ...
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 ...
Grain iron and zinc densities in released and commercial cultivars of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum)
Crop biofortification is a cost-effective and sustainable agricultural strategy to reduce micronutrient malnutrition
arising from iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) deficiencies. A large number of hybrids and open-pollinated varieties ...
Assessment of Diversity in Commercial Hybrids of Pearl Millet in India
Availability of diverse cultivars is essential in order to meet necessity of regional adaptation to various climatic conditions and to fulfil the farmers’ need of differential preference of various phenotypic traits in ...
