Interspecific Hybrid between Echinochloa esculenta (Japanese barnyard millet) and E. frumentacea (Indian barnyard millet) – A New Avenue for Genetic Enhancement of Barnyard Millet

Inter-specific hybridization between the two cultivated species of barnyard millet, Echinochloa frumentacea (Indian barnyard millet) and E. esculenta (Japanese barnyard millet) holds enormous potential for their mutual genetic enhancement. Here, we report the success in obtaining inter-specific hybr...
