Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop blast disease resistant finger millet (Eleusine coracana) mutants through gamma irradiation, focusing on agro-morphological traits, antioxidant enzyme activity, SSR marker-based genetic analysis, and gene expression profiling. This work addresses the challenge of blast disease and its impact on finger millet production and productivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In present study,...
