“…Pearl millet grain is encased in a tough fibrous seed that contains a variable amount of inhibitory factors like phytic acid and polyphenols ( Arora, Sehgal & Kawatra, 2003 ). However, these factors can be reduced through various approaches like soaking, fermentation, blanching, and roasting ( Kaushik & Grewal, 2017 ) up to a certain extent only. Moreover, the presence of anti-nutrient factors like saponins, tannins and phytic acid which can reduce nutrient utilization or food uptake hinders the biofortification in millet.…”

Pearl millet is a key food for millions living in semi-arid and arid regions and is a main diet for poorer populations. The genetic diversity existing in the pearl millet germplasm can be used to improve the micronutrient content and grain yield. Effective and organized exploitation of diversity at morphological and DNA levels is the strategy for any crop improvement program. In this study, the genetic diversity of 48 pearl millet genotypes was evaluated for eight morphological traits and eleven biochemical characters. All genotypes were also characterized using twelve SSR and six SRAP markers to evaluate genetic diversity. The significant mean difference between morphological and biochemical traits were detected. The productive tillers per plant varied from 2.65 to 7.60 with a mean of 4.80. The grain yield of genotypes varied more than 3× from 15.85 g (ICMR 07222) to 56.75 g (Nandi 75) with an average of 29.54 g per plant. Higher levels of protein, iron, and zinc contents were found to be present in ICMR 12555 (20.6%), ICMR 08666 (77.38 ppm), and IC 139900 (55.48 ppm), respectively, during the experiment. Substantial variability was observed for grain calcium as it ranged from 100.00 ppm (ICMR 10222) to 256.00 ppm (ICMR 12888). The top eight nutrient-dense genotypes flowered in 34–74 days and had 5.71–9.39 g 1,000 grain weight. Genotype ICMR 08666 was superior for Fe, Zn, K and P. The inter-genotype similarity coefficient at the genetic level, generated using DNA markers, ranged from 0.616 to 0.877 with a mean of 0.743. A combination of morpho-biochemical traits and DNA markers based diversity may help to differentiate the genotypes and diverse genotypes can be used in breeding programs to improve the mineral content in pearl millet.

“…Different treatments such as soaking, fermentation, blanching and roasting can enhance the bioavailability of these minerals by decreasing the level of antinutrients. Therefore, knowledge of nutrient content of these locally grown pearl millet varieties may help in the commercial processing of these grains into value-added food and beverage products which can be an important driver for economy and to curb malnutrition in developing countries (Kaushik et al, 2017). Millets are rich in minerals like iron, magnesium, phosphorous and potassium.…”

Mineral deficiency can be defined as a condition that caused due to reduced level of any of the minerals essential to human health. Low mineral concentration may impair a function dependent on that mineral in a body. Minerals support normal growth and development through various biochemical reactions. Its deficiencies can lead to a variety of health problems, such as fatigue, weak bones or a low immunity and other disorders. A large section of today’s population is suffering from micronutrient deficiencies caused largely by deficiency of vitamins and minerals. Iron and Zinc deficiency is the most common and widespread nutritional disorder in the world, and is a public health problem in both developed and developing countries. Widespread malnutrition specially among children is of great concern as it affects child growth, cognitive development and resistance to infection. Malnutrition due to mineral deficiency is a great concern in India as large number of children are suffering mineral deficiency due to insufficient mineral rich diet. Pearl Millets is important cereal crop and provides various minerals which are required for the wellbeing of a human body. It is enriched with Iron, Zinc and other minerals and its inclusion in diet through various food products could be useful in battling mineral deficiency.

“…Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) is a nutritious and droughtresistant (Singh, 2003) cereal grain that has gained attention for its health benefits. Pearl millet is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals and bioactive compounds (Vaijapurkar et al, 2015;Kaushik and Grewal, 2017) which contribute to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. As a gluten-free grain, pearl millet is suitable for individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease (Veena et al, 2004), making it an ideal choice for developing gluten-free snacks.…”

Background: Pearl millet and jamun seed powder were combined to develop snacks that utilize the nutritional value of pearl millet and jamun seeds as antioxidants for innovative, health-conscious options. This aligns with the demand for sustainable, nutrient-rich snacks blending traditional flavors with modern health considerations. Methods: Different formulations incorporated jamun seed powder at 20% levels. The study utilized a 9-point hedonic scale for sensory evaluation and standard procedures for nutritional analysis, including proximate, minerals, in vitro digestibility and storage fat quality assessments. Result: Jamun seed powder influenced the sensory scores, with 10% incorporation maintaining acceptability. Nutrient profiles were impacted, altering protein, fat, ash, crude fiber, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, phytic acid and polyphenols. In-vitro protein digestibility decreased, while starch digestibility remained unaffected. During storage, jamun seed products retained sensory attributes better than controls. Type I samples exhibits potential antioxidant and anti-rancidity properties, evident in reduced fat acidity and peroxide value after 90 days (143.40 to 137.25 KOH/100 gm and 14.33 to 13.42 meq/1000 g of fat). This study enhances nutritious and sustainable snack development, offering consumers gluten free indulgence in traditional flavors with added health benefits.
