In: Kole C (ed) Genome mapping and molecular breeding in plants. Vol. 1, Cereals and millets. Springer, Berlin, pp 325–332 Further, the multidimensional principal component analysis (PCA)-based phenotypic characterization of these 89 accessions resulted in three different groups for agronomic and other phenotypic traits based on its origin ( Sood et al., 2015). The study has also identified some promising genotypes, which could be efficiently used in a breeding program for the improvement of early maturity, grain yield, and yield contributing traits. Similarly, the IIMR, Hyderabad, evaluated the 146 barnyard millet accessions and found a larger variation for grain yield and yield contributing traits, which led to the identification of 18 promising accessions for barnyard millet breeding programs ( IIMR, 2016). A comparison of agronomic traits from various trials conducted across India is given in Supplementary Table S2, which revealed barnyard millet genotypes to have considerable variation for yield and yield-related traits. For instance, the genotypes with higher grain yield and yield contributing traits (panicle length, number of raceme, and grain yield) were identified in the Southern States of India viz., Telangana and Tamil Nadu. In contrast, early maturing (58–90 days) genotypes were mostly found in the Northern States of India.

Ltd., New Delhi, pp 237–253 Despite genome research in barnyard millet being at its infancy and far behind other minor millets, transcriptome sequencing has allowed researchers to develop several genomic resources, including EST-SSRs and SNPs, that could be useful for marker-assisted breeding. However, extensive efforts are needed in the future to develop the reference genome, genome-wide SSR and SNP markers, construction of genetic linkage maps, and physical maps. The recent release of the genome sequence of a weedy ancestor ( E. crus-galli), together with the genomic resources from major and minor millet crops, offers an initial framework for enriching genomic research in an orphan crop like barnyard millet by comparative genomic approaches. It is also fruitful to use the E. crus-galli genome as a reference genome for cultivated barnyard millet species similar to the case in bread wheat. It helps not only to understand the genome composition of cultivated barnyard millet species and increases mapping accuracy, but also helps us to know the effect of variants on protein function.
