Evaluation of Pearl Millet Grain Hybrids for Resistance to Meloidogyne spp. and Leaf Blight Caused by Pyricularia grisea
Pearl millet, Pennisetum glaucum, has potential as a grain crop in the southeastern United States. Although it is used as a food grain in India and Africa, its primary use in the United States is high quality feed for poultry and livestock (1,6,15). Hybrids adapted to the southeast should be high yielding, resistant to the rust fungus Puccinia substriata var. indica, and early maturing. The two...
متن کاملTracing QTLs for Leaf Blast Resistance and Agronomic Performance of Finger Millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.) Genotypes through Association Mapping and in silico Comparative Genomics Analyses
Finger millet is one of the small millets with high nutritive value. This crop is vulnerable to blast disease caused by Pyricularia grisea, which occurs annually during rainy and winter seasons. Leaf blast occurs at early crop stage and is highly damaging. Mapping of resistance genes and other quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for agronomic performance can be of great use for improving finger mill...

متن کاملStudy on Differential Response of Pyricularia grisea Isolates from Rice, Finger Millet and Panicum sp. with Local and Alien Media, and Their Host Range
Blast (Pyricularia grisea) is an economically important disease of rice and finger millet in Nepal. Isolates of the fungus from different hosts differed in their response in media for mycelial growth and sporulation. Radial mycelial growth (RMG) and days of sporulation (DOS) of P. grisea were studied by culturing three fungal isolates from rice, finger millet and Panicum sp. on six different me...
متن کاملFinger millet blast management in East Africa Creating opportunities for improving production and utilization of finger millet
Uganda is dominated by agriculture with over 80 percent of the 24.6 million people involved in subsistence farming. The most important cereals are maize, finger millet and sorghum in that order. Finger millet is the second most important cereal in Uganda after maize and exceeding sorghum both in area and production. It is the staple food for over 50% of the country’s 24.6 million people and inc...
