Foxtail Millet Breeding in China
2016Although there is a long history of foxtail millet cultivation in China, modern foxtail millet breeding was only initiated in China in the 1950s and 1960s, with significant progress being made since the 1980s. Most of the research on foxtail millet breeding has been conducted in China, where it is an important regional cereal.

Registration of ‘Canggu 5’ Foxtail Millet
Journal of Plant Registrations, 2016Summer foxtail millet [Setaria italica (L.) Beauv.] is widely grown in the northern part of China, especially in Hebei Province, where it accounts for one‐fourth of the country's producing areas. A winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)–summer foxtail millet–winter wheat rotation is a typical practice, so early maturity of foxtail millet is critical in ...

Origin and Domestication of Foxtail Millet
2016Among the more than 100 species in Setaria, S. macrostachya, S. pumila, and foxtail millet (S. italica) cereals were domesticated by human beings. However, only foxtail millet became a worldwide crop, contributing greatly to the development of Chinese civilization and remaining as a staple cereal in arid and semi-arid regions.

Why no tetraploid cultivar of foxtail millet?
Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution, 2004Autotetraploid material was induced by colchicine treatment of a pure line of foxtail millet and an interspecific hybrid between foxtail millet and giant green foxtail. Compared with diploid material, tetraploids were smaller, flowered later, and had a two-fold reduced fertility (number of grain per cm of spike).

Genetic Structure of Foxtail Millet Landraces
2017Studies on the genetic structure of foxtail millet landraces are reviewed. Several genetic works based on intraspecific hybrid pollen semi-sterility, isozymes, ribosomal DNA (rDNA) RFLP, nuclear RFLP, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) RFLP, RAPD, AFLP, transposon display (TD) markers, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were carried out to investigate ...
