Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millets and sorghum are extremely important crops in many developing nations and because of the ability of many of them to thrive in low-moisture situations they represent some exciting opportunities for further development to address the continuing and increasing impact of global temperature increase on the sustainability of the world’s food crops. The main focus of this thorough new book is the potential for crop improvement through new and traditional methods, with the book’s main chapters covering the following crops: sorghum, pearl millet, finger millet, foxtail milet, proso millet, little millet, barnyard millet, kodo millet, tef and fonio. Further chapters cover pests and diseases, nutritional and industrial importance, novel tools for improvement, and seed systems in millets. Millets and Sorghum provides full and comprehensive coverage of these crucially important crops, their biology, world status and potential for improvement, and is an essential purchase for crop and plant scientists, and food scientists and technologists throughout the developed and developing world. All libraries in universities and research establishment where biological and agricultural sciences are studied and taught should have copies of this important book on their shelves.
Book Synopsis Genetic and Agro-Morphological Diversity and Genotype by Environment Interaction of Yield and Nutritional Quality Traits in Pearl Millet Germplasm from Sudan by : Elfadil M A Bashir
Download or read book Genetic and Agro-Morphological Diversity and Genotype by Environment Interaction of Yield and Nutritional Quality Traits in Pearl Millet Germplasm from Sudan written by Elfadil M A Bashir and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2015-06-22 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to its adaptation to extremely harsh environments, pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L) R. Br.) is one of the most important staple cereals cultivated in the arid and semi-arid tropics of Asia and Africa. In these regions pearl millet is mainly produced under low-input, rainfed conditions in traditional farming systems, where several constrains are affecting pearl millet production, such as inter-annual rainfall variability, pests, diseases, Striga and use of low yielding varieties. The majority of the human population in these regions is affected by nutritional deficiencies of essential minerals causing micronutrient malnutrition (so-called ‘hidden hunger’). Plant genetic resources provide basic materials for selection and improvement of crop productivity through the optimal design of breeding programs to meet food security needs of the world’s rapidly rising population. The advent of PCR-based molecular markers such as simple sequence repeats (SSRs) has created an opportunity for fine-scale genetic characterization of germplasm collections. Understanding the structure of diversity and the identification of distinct materials with complementary traits for recombination by crossing provides the foundation for effective and sustained pearl millet population breeding and synthetic and hybrid development, based on the concept of heterotic groups in this allogamous crop.

Book Synopsis The Ghanaian Pearl Millet [Pennisetum Glaucum, (L), R.Br] Landrace by : Peter Anabire Asungre
Download or read book The Ghanaian Pearl Millet [Pennisetum Glaucum, (L), R.Br] Landrace written by Peter Anabire Asungre and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-27 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germplasm (store of genetic information) characterisation can be carried out by means of morphological, biochemical, or molecular analysis. Molecular analysis using genomic DNA is reliable since it can be carried out at any developmental state of plant and offers the opportunity to efficiently compare all accessions. The Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) markers used have demonstrated to be very informative in studying relationships in closely related plant species as well as readily detecting co-dominant inheritance and exhibiting a high level of polymorphism per loci. 126 Pearl millet accessions were collected from Northern Ghana, home to Pearl millet production in Ghana. These were grouped into Early, Medium and Late maturing classes. 36 Pearl millet SSR markers were used to genotype 119 of the accessions which revealed an average of 8.8 alleles per locus (range of 3 - 20). The results obtained indicate high polymorphism in the accessions. The sizes of alleles ranged from 98bp to 377bp. A combination of molecular and morpho-agronomic data resulted in 30 accessions selected as core to serve as trait-specific and local gene source for enhanced Pearl millet breeding work in Ghana.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant Breeding Reviews presents state-of-the-art reviews on plant genetics and the breeding of all types of crops by both traditional means and molecular methods. Many of the crops widely grown today stem from a very narrow genetic base; understanding and preserving crop genetic resources is vital to the security of food systems worldwide. The emphasis of the series is on methodology, a fundamental understanding of crop genetics, and applications to major crops.

Book Synopsis Plant Phenotyping and Phenomics for Plant Breeding by : Gustavo A. Lobos
Download or read book Plant Phenotyping and Phenomics for Plant Breeding written by Gustavo A. Lobos and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a consequence of the global climate change, both the reduction on yield potential and the available surface area of cultivated species will compromise the production of food needed for a constant growing population. There is consensus about the significant gap between world food consumption projected for the coming decades and the expected crop yield-improvements, which are estimated to be insufficient to meet the demand. The complexity of this scenario will challenge breeders to develop cultivars that are better adapted to adverse environmental conditions, therefore incorporating a new set of morpho-physiological and physico-chemical traits; a large number of these traits have been found to be linked to heat and drought tolerance. Currently, the only reasonable way to satisfy all these demands is through acquisition of high-dimensional phenotypic data (high-throughput phenotyping), allowing researchers with a holistic comprehension of plant responses, or ‘Phenomics’. Phenomics is still under development. This Research Topic aims to be a contribution to the progress of methodologies and analysis to help understand the performance of a genotype in a given environment.
