Book Description
The availability of considerable polymorphism for grain colour in finger millet enables usage of white finger millet in various food processing industries. Its usage directly depends on the availability of high yielding, biotic stress resistant and nutritionally superior genotype cultivation. Present investigation is carried out to identify contrasting genotypes for high yielding, neck and finger blast resistant and micronutrient rich genotypes in white finger millet. Fourteen genotypes were evaluated in two locations (Bengaluru and Mandya) during kharif 2013 and 2014 for yield and yield attributing traits, neck and finger blast incidence and grain nutrient contents. The results showed that genotypes were significantly different for all traits. None of the genotypes were superior for all the traits. Nevertheless the genotype DHWFM 11-3 besides being taller, had earheads with longer fingers. High leaf blast incidence was observed in TNEC- 1234 (4.66) followed by GPU-67 (4.33).The finger blast incidence varied from 8.95%-93.97%. The genotypes TNEC- 1234 (93.7%), GPU-67 (56.36%) and OUAT-2 (47.5%) had highest finger blast incidence. Genotypes GE-6834-1, VL- 384, GE-728 and VR-1034 were promising for protein content; All high yielding genotypes were comparable for grain protein content, resistant to leaf blast, neck blast and moderately resistant to finger blast with had comparable grain protein content. High yielding lines showed lower iron, zinc and calcium content. KMR-344 has exhibited highest seed yield among the white finger millet genotypes across environments. OUAT-2 had exhibited higher yield coupled with highest iron and zinc content. Genotypes resistant to the neck blast and finger blast were comparable for grain yield potential, grain protein content and associated with lower iron and zinc content. Genotypes rich in protein and calcium content are comparable grain yield potential, resistance to leaf blast, neck blast and finger blast incidence.

Advances in Plant Breeding Strategies: Cereals
Author: Jameel M. Al-Khayri
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030231089
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 603
Book Description
This book examines the development of innovative modern methodologies towards augmenting conventional plant breeding, in individual crops, for the production of new crop varieties under the increasingly limiting environmental and cultivation factors to achieve sustainable agricultural production, enhanced food security, in addition to providing raw materials for innovative industrial products and pharmaceuticals. This Volume 5, subtitled Cereals, focuses on advances in breeding strategies using both traditional and modern approaches for the improvement of individual crops. It addresses important staple food crops including barley, fonio, finger millet, foxtail millet, pearl millet, proso millet, quinoa, rice, rye, tef, triticale and spelt wheat. The volume is contributed by 53 internationally reputable scientists from 14 countries. Each chapter comprehensively reviews the modern literature on the subject and reflects the authors own experience.

Genetic and Genomic Resources for Grain Cereals Improvement
Author: Mohar Singh
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128020377
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
Genetic and Genomic Resources For Cereals Improvement is the first book to bring together the latest available genetic resources and genomics to facilitate the identification of specific germplasm, trait mapping, and allele mining that are needed to more effectively develop biotic and abiotic-stress-resistant grains. As grain cereals, including rice, wheat, maize, barley, sorghum, and millets constitute the bulk of global diets, both of vegetarian and non-vegetarian, there is a greater need for further genetic improvement, breeding, and plant genetic resources to secure the future food supply. This book is an invaluable resource for researchers, crop biologists, and students working with crop development and the changes in environmental climate that have had significant impact on crop production. It includes the latest information on tactics that ensure that environmentally robust genes and crops resilient to climate change are identified and preserved. Provides a single-volume resource on the global research work on grain cereals genetics and genomics Presents information for effectively managing and utilizing the genetic resources of this core food supply source Includes coverage of rice, wheat, maize, barley, sorghum, and pearl, finger and foxtail millets
