goals in the eve of International Year of Millets in 2023 by FAO. This book offers perspectives on the recent advances in the field of genomics, next-generation breeding approaches, hybrid development, crop production and protection technologies of pearl millets. Pearl millet is the world’s most important millet grown in the hot, semi-arid ecologies of Asia and Africa with versatile end uses. Of all the world’s cereals, pearl millet ranks the sixth most important crop after rice, wheat, maize, barley and sorghum. In the changing climatic condition, it can be pitched as strategic crop for food and nutritional security owing to its ability to survive in harsh ecologies and the higher micro-nutrients grain content. This books focuses on nutritional importance, climate resilience, seed systems, value-addition and market policies to enhance the genetic gain of pearl millets under marginal and favorable ecologies, and way forward for a food and nutrition secure world. It is a useful reading material for researchers and professionals working on small grains, millets and their cultivation and nutrition related aspects.AgricultureAgronomyAgricultural biotechnologyAgricultural genome mappingAgricultureAgronomyAgricultural BiotechnologyAgricultural GeneticsAgriculture.Agronomy.Agricultural biotechnology.Agricultural genome mapping.Agriculture.Agronomy.Agricultural Biotechnology.Agricultural Genetics.633.171Tonapi Vilas A1749830Thirunavukkarasu Nepolean1749831Gupta S.
