A simple seed-piercing transformation protocol for pearl millet and finger millet. [PDF]
Abstract Pearl millet and finger millet face challenges in adopting transgenic or editing approaches due to their inherent recalcitrance to genetic transformation protocols. To overcome these limitations, the current study aims to streamline the genetic transformation protocol for pearl millet and finger millet.
