“…The grouping pattern observed was similar in both the genetic diversity and population structure analysis. Similar grouping of barnyard millet whole global core germplasm into two groups based on species diversity have been reported earlier through agro-morphological evaluation (Sood et al 2015b) and SNP data (Wallace et al 2015). Since, there are no molecular markers available in barnyard millet for assessing the genetic diversity, so this study provides a set of polymorphic markers which can be utilized for the same.…”

The genomic information available in barnyard millet is very scarce though it is a rich source of highly digestible proteins and dietary fibre with good amounts of soluble and insoluble fractions. In the present investigation, 64 maize and finger millet genomic SSRs were used for cross transferability analysis among barnyard millet cultivated and wild species for identification of polymorphic markers, syntenic regions, genetic diversity and population structure analysis. Out of the 64 SSRs, only 39 (61%) were amplified across the barnyard millet genotypes. The PIC values of all the polymorphic loci for 24 barnyard millet genotypes varied from 0.25 to 0.73 at an average of 0.35. Based on the values of different parameters i.e., PIC values (andgt;0.7), gene diversity (andgt;0.6), inbreeding coefficient (andgt;0.27), the SSR loci bnlg2323 and bnlg2123 were observed to be highly polymorphic. Polymorphism comparison of maize and finger millet SSRs revealed that maize microsatellites were highly transferable, more polymorphic and were able to distinguish barnyard millet genotypes clearly. Results of population structure and genetic diversity analysis were similar in differentiating the barnyard millet genotypes into two groups. The structure analysis showed that all genotypes were pure lines (no admixture) while two (IEC514, and IEC409) had mixture of alleles from other genotypes of population which is depicted from the SSRs used in the study. The present study enriched the barnyard millet genetic resources by identifying suitable polymorphic markers of maize and finger millet for diversity analysis, cultivar identification and marker assisted breeding programmes.

“…Fodder contains a good amount of protein (7.6%), digestible fiber (23%), ash (12%), and fat (2.0%). Besides its superior feed quality, higher digestibility and nitrogen concentrations have meant barnyard millet is used as a potential livestock feed crop in the dry areas of the Deccan plateau to the extreme hills of the temperate sub-Himalayan region (Singh and Singh, 2005;Bandyopadhyay, 2009;Yadav and Yadav, 2013;Sood et al, 2015).…”

“…Further, the multidimensional principal component analysis (PCA)-based phenotypic characterization of these 89 accessions resulted in three different groups for agronomic and other phenotypic traits based on its origin (Sood et al, 2015). The study has also identified some promising genotypes, which could be efficiently used in a breeding program for the improvement of early maturity, grain yield, and yield contributing traits.…”

“…Barnyard millet is primarily cultivated for human consumption, though it is also used as a livestock feed. Among many cultivated and wild species of barnyard millet, two of the most popular species are Echinochloa frumentacea (Indian barnyard millet) and Echinochloa esculenta (Japanese barnyard millet) (Sood et al, 2015). Barnyard millet is a FIGURE 1 | Major cultivation and production of barnyard millet around the world (from IIMR, 2018).…”

“…Over the past decades, efforts made to study the features of barnyard millet are limited compared to other minor millets. So far, most of the studies have been aimed at exploring the knowledge of diversity within the germplasm through morphological (Mehta et al, 2005;Gupta et al, 2009;Nirmalakumari and Vetriventhan, 2009;Sood et al, 2015;Renganathan et al, 2017) and molecular markers (Nozawa et al, 2006;Altop and Mennan, 2011;Prabha et al, 2012;Wallace et al, 2015;Manimekalai et al, 2018;Murukarthick et al, 2019). Also, several studies disclosed the nutritional profile of barnyard millet, particularly the high Fe and Zn content in the grains (Veena et al, 2005;Saleh et al, 2013;Chandel et al, 2014;Renganathan et al, 2017).…”

Barnyard millet (Echinochloa species) has become one of the most important minor millet crops in Asia, showing a firm upsurge in world production. The genus Echinochloa comprises of two major species, Echinochloa esculenta and Echinochloa frumentacea, which are predominantly cultivated for human consumption and livestock feed. They are less susceptible to biotic and abiotic stresses. Barnyard millet grain is a good source of protein, carbohydrate, fiber, and, most notably, contains more micronutrients (iron and zinc) than other major cereals. Despite its nutritional and agronomic benefits, barnyard millet has remained an underutilized crop. Over the past decades, very limited attempts have been made to study the features of this crop. Hence, more concerted research efforts are required to characterize germplasm resources, identify trait-specific donors, develop mapping population, and discover QTL/gene (s). The recent release of genome and transcriptome sequences of wild and cultivated Echinochloa species, respectively has facilitated in understanding the genetic architecture and decoding the rapport between genotype and phenotype of micronutrients and agronomic traits in this crop. In this review, we highlight the importance of barnyard millet in the current scenario and discuss the up-to-date status of genetic and genomics research and the research gaps to be worked upon by suggesting directions for future research to make barnyard millet a potential crop in contributing to food and nutritional security.
