Millets are annual grasses and grow well under the marginal conditions of soil fertility and moisture, which provide staple food for millions of people. Millets have strong, deep rooting systems and short life cycles. Breeding research in millets, habitually engages different species, cultivars, and varieties. This makes an immense challenge to maintain the different varieties and their identif...

Pearl millet was subjected to air plasma bubbling along with soaking enhance HCl extractable iron by reducing phytic acid content. The pearl soaked for 11 h and 10 followed (1 2 h) at input voltage 180 V lph flow rate. A 64.9% 70.93% of reduction in observed treatments. total content reduced while improved 68% 59% 1 exposure time. significant changes (p≤ 0.05) millet’s physical, nutritional, te...

The study was carried out to evaluate the effects of complete replacement of maize with two varieties of guinea corn and two varieties of millets on the growth performance and nutrient retention in broiler chickens. Five isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets for the broiler starter (23.5% CP; 2800 kcal/ME) and finisher (21.5% CP; 2900 kcal/ME) phases were formulated. Diet 1 consisted on a maize b...

abstract millets are important agricultural crops for arid regions due to short life span and their resistance to salinity and drought conditions. in iran, three main species of millets including proso millet (panicum miliaceum), foxtail millet (setaria italica) and pearl millet (pennisetum glaucum) are cultivated in shouthern khorasan province, eastern iran. in order to assess inter-specific g...

This study assessed the effects of sprouting and fermentation on total phenolic content, flavonoid content antioxidant property pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) sorghum (Sorghum bicolor). Pearl were subjected to treatment for 0 h, 24 48 72 h 96 h. After each treatments, samples oven-dried at 60 oC milled into fine flour 0.05 mm in size. The capacities quantified using standard methods. results...
