Role of Finger Millet, Pearl Millet and Foxtail Millet in Osteoporosis
Sanjeevani Darshan National - Journal of Ayurveda & Yoga, 2023Objectives- Osteoporosis is a chronic, metabolic, progressive bone disease which is characterized by decrease in bone density and increased bone fragility resulting in increase the risk of fracture. It is the most common bone disease affecting one in three women and one in five men over the age of 50 years Worldwide.The study is aimed to decrease such ...

The pentosan content of different varieties of finger millet ranged from 2.7 to 4.0%. The total carbohydrate content of the pentosan preparations ranged from 52 to 92% and protein content varied from 3.9 to 18.1%. The water-soluble and alkali-soluble pentosans of two varieties of finger millet contained the sugars glucose, arabinose and xylose ...

Farmers’ Adoption of Finger Millet Production Technologies and the Impact on Finger Millet Yields
Journal of Experimental Agriculture InternationalLow remuneration and poor adoption of Finger millet [Eleusine coracana] production technologies were major constraints in yield gap in finger millet. Therefore, evaluation of production potential, adoption, economic and other benefits of the technologies in social perspectives of the farmers was undertaken.

The genetic map of finger millet, Eleusine coracana
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2006Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), expressed-sequenced tag (EST), and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to generate a genetic map of the tetraploid finger millet (Eleusine coracana subsp. coracana) genome (2n = 4x = 36).

The genomic information available for finger millet is very scarce though the plant is a rich source of highly digestible proteins and dietary fibre with good amounts of soluble and insoluble fractions. In present study, 64 maize and finger millet genomic SSRs were used for cross transferability, identification of polymorphic markers and genetic ...

Effect of parboiling on cooking characteristics of finger millet and foxtail millet
Agricultural Engineering TodayExperiments on parboiling of finger millet (Eleusine coracana) and foxtail millet (Setaria italica) were conducted by soaking at 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70°C and steaming for 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 min. The parboiled millet grains were shade dried and pearled in a laboratory scale pearler-polisher. The cooking characteristics of these parboiled millet grains

Finger millet: Eleusine coracana.
Advances in food and nutrition research, 2012Finger millet (Eleusine coracana) is a grass crop grown in Africa, India Nepal, and many countries of Asia. The plant and grain is resistant to drought, pests, and pathogens. It is rich in polyphenols and particularly in calcium. The double headed trypsin, α-amylase inhibitor from this grain has been isolated and characterized extensively.
