Abstract: This report describes the construction of integrated genetic maps in pearl millet involving certain purple phenotype and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. These maps provide a direct means of implementing DNA marker-assisted selection and of facilitating “map-based cloning” for engineering novel traits. The purple pigmentation of leaf sheath, midrib and leaf margin was inherited together ‘en bloc’ under the control of a single dominant locus (the ‘midrib complex’) and was inseparably associated with the lo… Show more

“…Our findings are in line with previous reports on pearl millet (Varalakshmi et al, 2012; Azhaguvel et al, 2003), in which they mapped the P foliage colour locus to pearl millet linkage group 4. The pearl millet linkage group 4 shows strong synteny and co-linearity with the Napier grass A03 and also some synteny with B01 (Yan et al, 2021).…”

“…The pearl millet linkage group 4 shows strong synteny and co-linearity with the Napier grass A03 and also some synteny with B01 (Yan et al, 2021). In addition, downy mildew and rust resistance genes have been identified in this genomic region of the pearl millet genome (Varalakshmi et al, 2012; Azhaguvel et al, 2003). According to Varalakshmi et al (2012), the pearl millet purple pigmentation of the leaf sheath, midrib and leaf margin are co-inherited under the control of a single dominant locus (the ‘midrib complex’) and are inseparably associated with the locus governing the purple coloration of the internode.…”

“…Integrated genetic maps involving molecular and phenotypic markers provide a direct means for investigating the number of genes influencing a trait, their location along the chromosomes, and the effects of variation in their dosage [ 8 ]. Marker-based genetic linkage map was originally based upon codominantly inherited RFLP markers has been extended and supplemented with a moderate number of mapped pearl millet SSR markers [ 9 11 ].…”

“…The D 2 /d 2 plant height locus and the P/p foliage color locus are linked and mapped to pearl millet linkage group 4 (Azhaguvel et al 2003). A purple foliage pearl millet was identified in a population of 500 plants derived from a combined mutagenic treatment with a 20 Kr dose of gamma rays and 0.1% aqueous solution of ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) (Varalakshmi et al 2012).…”
