Opportunities for marker-assisted selection (MAS) to improve the feed quality of crop residues in pearl millet and sorghum
Cereal crop residues (straw, chaff, etc.) are important components of maintenance rations for ruminant livestock in many parts of the world. They are especially important in small-holder crop-livestock production systems in the sub-humid, semi-arid, and arid tropics and subtropics where most of the...
