Abstract excerpt
Extreme climatic conditions like drought are a major threat to global food production. Terminal drought stress causes severe yield losses in pearl millet. Development of climate-resilient varieties/hybrids can minimize the yield losses to the farmers caused due to climatic extremes. In the present study, marker-assisted selection (MAS) was employed with an aim to develop improved version of HHB 226 by...
