The topics discussed have the potential to open up a new era of crop improvement in foxtail millet and other related grass species. Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) is the oldest domesticated crop in the world (domesticated >8700 years ago) and it has been extensively grown in the semi-arid regions of Asia, Europe and the Americas as a food and fodder crop ever since. Further, as a C4 crop with close genetic relatedness to several biofuel grasses, foxtail millet has been promoted as a model plant. In view of its importance, the US Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute and Beijing Genomics Institute have independently sequenced the genome of foxtail millet. The availability of the draft genome sequence has advanced the genomics and genetics of this important crop, resulting in the development of large-scale genome-wide molecular markers and demonstration of their utility in genomics-assisted breeding, as well as the identification of the molecular and biological roles of several stress-responsive gene families in connection with abiotic stress tolerance. In addition, several open access databases have been developed to make these resources for crop improvement through structural and functional genomics widely available. 410 0$aCompendium of Plant Genomes,$x2199-4781 606 $aPlant genetics 606 $aPlant breeding 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant Genetics and Genomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32020 606 $aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 615 0$aPlant genetics. 615 0$aPlant breeding. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 14$aPlant Genetics and Genomics. 615 24$aPlant Breeding/Biotechnology. 615 24$aAgriculture. 676 $a633.17 702 $aPrasad$b Manoj$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253945403321 996 $aFoxtail Millet Genome$94326757 997 $aUNINA
