During the rainy season (kharif) of 2021, a field trail “Effect phosphorus and boron on growth yield foxtail millet (Setaria italica)” was conducted treatments with three levels (i.e. P 25, 30, 35kg/ha B 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 kg/ha respectively) at CRF (Crop Research Farm) SHIATS, Department Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology Science, Prayagraj, ...

objective: fusarium diseases that cause grain mold and stalk rot of millet are the most important diseases, of these crops in iran. fusarium can cause stalk rots, ear rots, and grain mold, resulting in serious production losses in millet, and produce mycotoxins that are harmful to both humans and domesticated animals.  methods: a total of 23 fusarium isolates were recovered from foxtail millet ...

Field experiment was conducted using 64 genotypes of foxtail millet to assess the genetic divergence for 24 metric traits in Kharif 2020. The ANOVA revealed existence highly significant variation all examined. Principal component analysis identified nine principal components with eigen value more than one and 76.59% cumulative variance. 2D 3D plots indicated that SiA 60, 3570, 3914, 3222, 3629,...

Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) is cultivated around the world for human and animal consumption. There is no suitable herbicide available for weed control in foxtail millet fields during the post-emergence stage. In this study, we investigated the effect and safety of the post-emergence herbicide tribenuron-methyl (TBM) on foxtail millet in terms of grain yield and quality using a split-plo...
