Screening of Pearl Millet F1 Hybrids for Heat Tolerance at Early Seedling Stage
Ten pearl millet genotypes selected on the basis of response to supra-optimal temperature tolerance were crossed in a half-diallel mating system. The 45 F1 hybrids produced were tested along with parents for heat tolerance and related traits at seedling stage. Field screening and laboratory screenin...
