Morphological, chemical and in vitro stover quality traits to predict the livestock productivity potential of pearl millet stover
Grain and stover productivity and variation in stover quality traits were investigated amongst 256 full-sib progenies of pearl millet variety ICMV 221. Substantial ranges were observed for grain (1.5-fold difference) and stover (1.8-fold difference) yields. Stover protein content varied two-fold,...

Identification and validation of morphological, chemical and in vitro fodder quality traits for use in multidimensional crop improvement of pearl millet
The objectives of the present work were threefold: first, to determine the ranges of grain and stover yields and stover quality traits in full-sib progenies of pearl millet cultivar ICMV 221; second, to assess changes in grain and stover characteristics in trait-specific experimental varieties ge...
