"Pearl millet is an important staple food for farming communities\r\nacross semi-arid tropical systems of South Asia and\r\nSub-Saharan Africa where production suffers uncertain precipitation.\r\nThis work is undertaken under the premise that maximizing\r\ngrain yield under water-limited conditions depends\r\non both maximizing water use and ensuring water availability\r\nfor the grain filling period. Here we discuss the phenotyping\r\nmethods targeting the variability in plant water use strategies\r\nwhich determine the crop production success in water-limited\r\nenvironments. A fine-mapping population of pearl millet,\r\nsegregating within the previously identified drought tolerance\r\nquantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 2 (LG02), was\r\ntested across different experimental environments (pot culture,\r\nhigh-throughput phenotyping platform (LeasyScan), Lysimeter,\r\nand Field). Recombinants were then analyzed for traits\r\nat different levels of plant organization, ranging from water-use\r\ntraits (transpiration rate, leaf area, plant organ dry weights,\r\netc.) to crop production and agronomic traits (grain yield, tiller\r\nnumber, harvest index, etc.) The linkages between traits\r\nacross the experimental systems were analyzed, using principal\r\ncomponent analysis (PCA) and QTL co-localization approach.\r\nThe functional relevance of the phenotyping systems was traced\r\nby PCA analysis. Furthermore, we found four regions within the\r\nLG02-QTL underlying substantial co-mapping of water-use related\r\nand agronomic traits. These regions were identified across\r\nthe experimental systems and justified linkages between water-\r\nuse traits were phenotyped at lower level of plant organization\r\nto the agronomic traits assessed in the field. Therefore, the\r\nphenotyping systems at ICRISAT are validated and well set to\r\naccelerate crop breeding for drought adaptations."^^ . "2017-02" . . . "60" . "6" . .
