Variations in chlorophyll content, stomatal conductance, and photosynthesis in Setaria EMS mutants
Published 2023-06-01Get full textChlorophyll (Chl) content, especially Chl b content, and stomatal conductance (Gs) are the key factors affecting the net photosynthetic rate (Pn). Setaria italica, a diploid C4 panicoid species with a simple genome and high transformation efficiency, has been widely accepted as a model in photosynth...

Genetic Analysis and Preliminary Mapping of a Highly Male-Sterile Gene in Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica L. Beauv.) Using SSR Markers
Published 2013-12-01Get full textBreeding of male-sterile lines has become the mainstream for the heterosis utilization in foxtail millet, but the genetic basis of most male-sterile lines used for the hybrid is still an area to be elucidated. In this study, a highly male-sterile line Gao146A was investigated. Genetic analysis indic...

Identification of blast-resistance loci through genome-wide association analysis in foxtail millet (Setaria italica (L.) Beauv.)
Published 2021-08-01Get full textBlast disease caused by the fungus Magnaporthe grisea results in significant yield losses of cereal crops across the world. To date, very few regulatory genes contributing to blast resistance in grass species have been identified and the genetic basis of blast resistance in cereals remains elusive....

Genetic variation of yellow pigment and its components in foxtail millet (Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv.) from different eco-regions in China
Published 2017-11-01Get full textKernel color is an important trait for assessing the commercial and nutritional quality of foxtail millet. Yellow pigment content (YPC) and carotenoid components (lutein and zeaxanthin) of 270 foxtail millet accessions, including 50 landraces and 220 improved cultivars, from four different eco-regio...
