Pearl Millet Growth as Affected by Phosphorus and Water
The interaction of soiil water and P supply is of paramount importance to pearl millet [Penniseturn gluucum (L.) R. Br.] growth in Sahelian Africa due to unreliable rainfall and low soil P availability. This study was conducted to quantify the growth response of pe:ul millet to water supply and P under conditions analogous to the Saliel in terms of climatle and soil. Millet was grown for 84 d i...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of reciprocal differences in the inheritance of in vitro characters in pearl millet
Reciprocal differences persist in nature because of the unequal contribution of cytoplasmic determinants from male and female gametes to the zygote. The inheritance of genetic differences is an important factor that influences various traits, including somatic embryogenesis and regeneration in vitro. In this report, we estimate the cytoplasmic and maternal effects in pearl millet and their adeq...

متن کاملMechanisms of starvation tolerance in pearl millet.
The response of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.]) seedlings to prolonged starvation was investigated at the biochemical and ultrastructural level. After 2 days of darkness the bulk of the seedling carbohydrate reserves were depleted. After 8 days in the dark the respiratory rate had declined to less than 50% of its initial value and the plants had lost half of their total protein content. ...
متن کاملMapping QTLs Controlling Flowering Time and Important Agronomic Traits in Pearl Millet
Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] is a staple crop for the people of arid and semi-arid regions of the world. It is fast gaining importance as a climate resilient nutricereal. Exploiting the bold seeded, semi-dwarf, and early flowering genotypes in pearl millet is a key breeding strategy to enhance yield, adaptability, and for adequate food in resource-poor zones. Genetic variation ...
