Potato has become one of the primary cash crops in the arid region of the Loess Plateau. However, what and how cereal crops to rotate with potato is better for the farmer’s income and environment is unclear now. 11 potato based rotation systems were simulated in Yulin, using EPIC model based on local information. Results showed 1) Though mean potato yield decreased from 6.84 to 5.38 t/hm, the m...

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...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum; Poaceae) is a minor crop with good nutritional qualities and strong tolerance to drought stress and soil infertility. However, studies on genetic diversity have been limited due to a lack of efficient genetic markers. METHODS Illumina sequencing technology was used to generate short read sequences of proso millet, and de novo transcriptome...

Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is an important food and fodder grain crop that is grown for human consumption. Production of this species is affected by several plant diseases, such as rust. The cultivar Shilixiang has been identified as resistant to the foxtail millet rust pathogen, Uromyces setariae-italicae. In order to identify signaling pathways and genes related to the plant's defense m...

Broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.), one of the first domesticated crops, has been grown in Northern China for at least 10,000 years. The species is presently a minor crop, and evaluation of its genetic diversity has been very limited. In this study, we analyzed the genetic diversity of 88 accessions of broomcorn millet collected from various provinces of China. Amplification with 67 simple...

The present study was conducted to evaluate Genotype×Environment interaction and stability analysis for quality parameters 9 observations in 50 little millet genotypes under three environments i.e.Waghai, Vanarasi Navsari locations Gujarat, India during the year kharif-2020. Stability revealed that G×E significantly differed all characters except calcium content (mg 100 g-1) ash indicated diffe...

The complete genome sequence of an Uiseong isolate of barley virus G (BVG) on proso millet plants in a field in South Korea was determined by RNA sequencing and Sanger sequencing. To our knowledge, this is the first complete genome sequence report of BVG infecting proso millet in South Korea.

introduction: cakes are usually formulated including wheat flour, sugar, egg and some liquids such as milk, water and oil. the textural properties of gluten in dough such as tensile, expansion and tolerance capability during mixing are major factors in baking industry. in fact, the structural protein to produce bread, cakes, muffins and biscuits is called gluten and the absence of gluten due to...
