| Description |
Germplasm are recognized as valuable genetic resources for improvement of any traits. Sixty one germplasm of pearl millet of diverse for one or many characters were selected and evaluated in completely randomized block design at millet breeding station, Tamilnadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore to study and evaluate the extent of variation and breeding prospect for nutritional quality characters. A wide range of variability existed for all the traits studied indicating the presence of significant variability among the tested genotypes. In present study, the relationship between grain iron and zinc content was significant (r2 =0.77; P
