Genetic enhancement for superior food-feed traits in a pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) variety by recurrent selection
Grain and stover productivity and variation in stover quality traits were investigated amongst 256 full-sib progenies of pearl millet variety ICMV 221. Substantial ranges were observed for grain (1.5-fold difference) and stover (1.8-fold difference) yields. Stover protein content varied two-fold, ra...
