| Abstract/Description: | Foxtail millet is a highly self-pollinated crop, and the small delicate flowers make hybridization and crossing difficult. Progress in crop improvement of foxtail millet has been achieved chiefly through pedigree selection in many parts of the globe. China has been pioneering in developing male sterile lines and yield gains through heterosis. Many male sterile systems have been developed in China and are used for commercial production. Methods of crossing through physical and chemical treatments are in their infancy. In order to realize a yield benefit in this nutritionally rich and highly climate-resilient crop, recombination breeding and hybrid technology need to be developed. |
