Genomic diversity in pearl millet inbred lines derived from landraces and improved varieties
Background Genetic improvement of pearl millet is lagging behind most of the major crops. Development of genomic resources is expected to expedite breeding for improved agronomic traits, stress tolerance, yield, and nutritional quality.

Evaluations on the potential productivity of winter wheat based on agro-ecological zone in the world [PDF]
Wheat is the most widely grown crop globally and an essential source of calories in human diets. Maintaining and increasing global wheat production is therefore strongly linked to food security.

Iron and zinc grain density in common wheat grown in Central Asia [PDF]
Sixty-six spring and winter common wheat genotypes from Central Asian breeding programs were evaluated for grain concentrations of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). Iron showed large variation among genotypes, ranging from 25 mg kg1 to 56 mg kg1 (mean 38 mg kg1).
