Pearl millet is a staple food for more than 90 million people living in poverty and can address the triple burden of malnutrition substantially. It remained a neglected crop until the turn of the 21st century, and much emphasis has been placed since then on the development of various genetic and genomic resources for whole-genome scan studies, such as the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic selection (GS). This was facilitated by the advent of sequencingbased genotyping, such as genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS), RAD-sequencing, and whole-genome re-sequencing (WGRS) in pearl millet. To carry out GWAS and GS, a world association mapping panel called the Pearl Millet inbred Germplasm Association Panel (PMiGAP) was developed at ICRISAT in partnership with Aberystwyth University. This panel consisted of germplasm lines, landraces, and breeding lines from 27 countries and was re-sequenced using the WGRS approach. It has a repository of circa 29 million genome-wide SNPs. PMiGAP has been used to map traits related to drought tolerance, grain Fe and Zn content, nitrogen use efficiency, components of endosperm starch, grain yield, etc. Genomic selection in pearl millet was jump-started recently by WGRS, RAD, and tGBS (tunable genotyping-by-sequencing) approaches for the PMiGAP and hybrid parental lines. Using multi-environment phenotyping of various training populations, initial attempts have been made to develop genomic selection models. This mini review discusses advances and prospects in GWAS and GS for pearl millet. date: 2020-02 date_type: published publication: Frontiers in Genetics (TSI) volume: 10 number: 1389 publisher: Frontiers Media pagerange: 1-10 id_number: doi:10.3389/fgene.2019.01389 refereed: TRUE issn: 1664-8021 official_url: https://doi.org/10.3389/fgene.2019.01389 related_url_url: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=10.3389%2Ffgene.2019.01389&btnG= related_url_type: pub citation: Srivastava, R K and Singh, R B and Pujarula, V L and Bollam, S and Pusuluri, M and Chellapilla, T S and Yadav, R S and Gupta, R (2020) Genome-Wide Association Studies and Genomic Selection in Pearl Millet: Advances and Prospects.
