Conservation priorities for endangered coastal North African Pennisetum glaucum L. landrace populations as inferred from phylogenetic considerations and population structure analysis.

The increasing anthropologic pressure and the modernization of agriculture have led to a forsaking of pearl millet traditional cultivars, inducing a progressive loss of the genetic variability encompassed in this locally adapted germplasm. Imperatively, national efforts based on robust data gleaned from genetic surveys have to be undertaken in order to set up suitable conservation priorities. In this study, in...
