Description Variations among 196 germplasm accessions of finger millet [Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn.] from Malawi were studied at Chitedze and Makoka Research Stations during the 1988/89 rainy season. The differences between germplasm accessions for number of days to flowering, plant height, finger length, finger width, number of fingers, number of productive tillers, panicle yield, grain yield, and finger blast incidence were significant at both locations. Six germplasm accessions with highest values and six accessions with lowest values of each trait are listed.
