Barnyard millet – a potential food and feed crop of future

The two species under genus Echinochloa, E. frumentacea (Indian barnyard millet) and E. esculenta (Japanese barnyard millet), are cultivated for food and fodder by hilly and tribal communities in Asia particularly in India, China and Japan. The crop has wide adaptability and occupies a special place in marginal rainfed areas because of its short life cycle. Although the area under the crop has come down drastically in last 50 years, the crop ability to survive under harsh conditions makes it a better choice during famine years. In the Indian Himalayan region, the crop was traditionally used as a substitute for rice. It has been identified as a suitable choice for climate-resilient agriculture. High nutrient content and antioxidant effects make it to be considered as a functional food crop. Recently, the demand of the crop has increased due to its highly nutritious grains. Thus, it has the potential to provide both food and nutritional security particularly in hills where nutritional deficiencies are in abundance. Despite enormous potential, the crop has not gained the popularity among masses and is still considered as poor man's food. This work therefore is an attempt to compile the meagre information available on crop history, evolution, crop breeding and present status to make the crop competitive and revamp its cultivation.

“…Re-sequencing of foxtail millet landrace Shilixiang was also carried out to identify useful markers for studies of agronomic characters [21]. These sequence data provided the foundation for the development of polymorphic markers, leading to a high density genetic map of Setaria based on SSRs, which will facilitate genetic and genomic study of this model plant [22,23]. Genetic diversity and population structure studies in Chinese green foxtail [24] and domesticated landraces [25] revealed high level of genetic diversity, an average allele number per locus of 33.5 and 20.9, respectively.…”

Model organisms such as Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and rice (Oryza sativa) have proven essential for efficient scientific discovery and development of new methods. With the diversity of plant lineages, some important processes such as C 4 photosynthesis are not found in either Arabidopsis or rice, so new model species are needed. Due to their small diploid genomes, short life cycles, self-pollination, small adult statures and prolific seed production, domesticated foxtail millet (Setaria italica) and its wild ancestor, green foxtail (S. viridis), have recently been proposed as novel model species for functional genomics of the Panicoideae, especially for study of C 4 photosynthesis. This review outlines the development of these species as model organisms, and discusses current challenges and future potential of a Setaria model.

“…Molecular markers have been widely used to map important genes and assist with the breeding of crops. 18,19 In molecular breeding the ESTs are play important roles the simple sequence repeats (SSRs) which derived from ESTs are known as EST-SSR. With the availability of large numbers of ESTs and other DNA sequence data, development of EST-based SSR markers through data mining has become fast, efficient, and relatively inexpensive compared with the development of genomic SSRs.…”

In the advent of the genomic era, it has resulted in the vast production of publicly available DNA sequence data, including large collections of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from a variety of different taxa. ESTs can be useful for gene identification, and with the involvement of in silico methodologies and the pathway-based analyses help to elucidate the biological functions and interactions of genes. ESTs encoding putative transcription factors (TFs) were identified by sequence comparison to known TF gene families of crop plants in the Plant Transcription Factor Database. Comparative mapping analysis of ESTs with other crops genome could reveal the phylogenetic relationships of several important genes. The utilization of these ESTs with computational studies will increase the understanding of genetic basis of the crop plants. Then the molecular markers based on ESTs such as EST-SSR, ESTSNPs providing the good source for the population genetics studies and useful for the marker-assisted breeding. These studies will make a great impact in crop improvement programs and keep the global food security. to EST based molecular markers significantly reveals the molecular base of a particular crop plant.
