“…They are high‐energy coarse cereals with a balanced amount of dietary carbohydrates, protein, fat, dietary fiber and minerals, and provide more essential amino acid and minerals than most of the other cereals (Taylor & Kruger, 2016). India is the major producer of millets, and they are utilized in different traditional preparations such as porridge, steam‐cooked preparations, fermented foods, nonalcoholic beverages, and snack foods (Pattanashetti, Upadhyaya, Dwivedi, Vetriventhan, & Reddy, 2016).…”

Effect of extruded finger millet on dough rheology and functional quality of pearl millet‐based unleavened flatbread

et al. 2020

Background and objectives It has been hypothesized that extrusion can improve the viscoelasticity of dough. The present study aimed to verify the potential of extruded finger millet (EF) flour in improving the rheological, technological, nutritional, and sensory characteristics of pearl millet‐based composite dough and flatbread. Findings Incremental addition of EF in pearl millet (PM) composite dough caused a significant (p < .05) decrease in pasting properties of composite dough, whereas there was a significant increase in dough extensibility. The dough prepared by substituting 20% EF exhibited a higher value of the elastic share of compliance. EF significantly (p < .05) improved the puffing, textural, and nutritional quality of PM composite flatbread. Conclusion Addition of EF in PM improved the rheological and nutritional profile of flatbread. Significance and novelty Substitution of EF flour can significantly improve the technological properties, nutrition of PM‐based flatbread.

“…Fortunately, genetic recourses have been collected and preserved by many national and international gene banks around the world. Pearl millet accessions have been collected and conserved by 97 gene banks (66,682 accessions) globally, in which ICRISAT has the largest collection (~21,594 pearl millet accessions from 51countries) (Singh and Upadhyaya, 2016). More importantly, core and mini core collections have been developed at ICRISAT and serve as essential resources for allele mining studies for the identification of agronomic studies, and they are also used for the development of tolerant lines for both abiotic and biotic stresses.…”

“…Likewise, one more genotype-based reference set has been developed, and it comprises 300 pearl millet accessions (Upadhyaya et al, 2011). At ICRISAT, most of the accessions were evaluated for several agronomical traits, and these show the extent of genetic diversity and phenotypic variance for most of the qualitative and quantitative traits (Singh and Upadhyaya 2016). It is evident that vast genetic variability is the determining factor for the identification of promising germplasm for the desired trait (Upadhyaya et al, 2007).…”

Genome-Wide Association Studies and Genomic Selection in Pearl Millet: Advances and Prospects

et al. 2020

Pearl millet is a climate-resilient, drought-tolerant crop capable of growing in marginal environments of arid and semi-arid regions globally. Pearl millet is a staple food for more than 90 million people living in poverty and can address the triple burden of malnutrition substantially. It remained a neglected crop until the turn of the 21st century, and much emphasis has been placed since then on the development of various genetic and genomic resources for whole-genome scan studies, such as the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic selection (GS). This was facilitated by the advent of sequencingbased genotyping, such as genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS), RAD-sequencing, and whole-genome re-sequencing (WGRS) in pearl millet. To carry out GWAS and GS, a world association mapping panel called the Pearl Millet inbred Germplasm Association Panel (PMiGAP) was developed at ICRISAT in partnership with Aberystwyth University. This panel consisted of germplasm lines, landraces, and breeding lines from 27 countries and was re-sequenced using the WGRS approach. It has a repository of circa 29 million genome-wide SNPs. PMiGAP has been used to map traits related to drought tolerance, grain Fe and Zn content, nitrogen use efficiency, components of endosperm starch, grain yield, etc. Genomic selection in pearl millet was jump-started recently by WGRS, RAD, and tGBS (tunable genotyping-by-sequencing) approaches for the PMiGAP and hybrid parental lines. Using multi-environment phenotyping of various training populations, initial attempts have been made to develop genomic selection models. This mini review discusses advances and prospects in GWAS and GS for pearl millet.

“…Pearl millet was initially introduced to the United States as a poultry feed because of its smaller grain size, and higher protein (6–14%) and lysine (1.2–2.6%) concentrations than corn (Burton et al, 1972; Saleh et al, 2013). Presently, it is gaining popularity in the United States as it can be grown for grain, forage, or dual purposes (Pattanashetti et al, 2015).…”

Core Ideas• Declining groundwater supplies, the increasing cost of irrigation, and excessive summer dryness threaten the sustainability of corn production in the Texas High Plains (THP).• Forage sorghum and pearl millet are potential alternatives to corn silage.• Sorghum and pearl millet are likely to replace much of the corn silage crop in the THP. AbstractDiminishing irrigation water from the Ogallala aquifer to produce forage crops is jeopardizing the beef and dairy industries in the Texas High Plains (THP). The principal feed ingredient of the beef and dairy sectors is corn (Zea mays L.) silage, which is produced near the feeding operations to minimize transport costs, unlike concentrated feed, which can be transported long distances. The declining pumping capacity of irrigation wells hinders the ability to sustain a supply of water for profitable corn production in the THP. Forage sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] and pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] are known for their ability to tolerate drought and heat, which enables them to produce high forage yields with less water than corn. Pearl millet and sorghum can also be harvested as hay, greenchop, or silage like corn. Introduction of the brown midrib (BMR) trait into pearl millet and sorghum has enhanced their nutrient composition. Brown midrib is a genetic trait associated with reduced lignin synthesis, resulting in enhanced digestion of forage fiber in the bovine (Bos taurus) rumen, thereby increasing weight gain and milk production per ton of forage fed over non-BMR types. Therefore, BMR forage sorghum and BMR pearl millet could be potential alternative forage crops where water is insufficient to grow corn silage in the THP. Hence, the objective of this review paper is to compare the water use efficiency, nutritional composition, associated antinutritional compounds, animal performance, and potential yields of BMR forage sorghum and BMR pearl millet with corn.
